The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James audiobook.
Genre: drama
The Portrait of a Lady is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in The Atlantic Monthly and Macmillan's Magazine in 1880–81 and then as a book in 1881. It is one of James's most popular long novels, and is regarded by critics as one of his finest. The Portrait of a Lady is the story of a spirited young American woman, Isabel Archer, who 'affronts her destiny' and finds it overwhelming. She inherits a large amount of money and subsequently becomes the victim of Machiavellian scheming by two American expatriates. Like many of James's novels, it is set in Europe, mostly England and Italy. Generally regarded as the masterpiece of James's early period, this novel reflects James's continuing interest in the differences between the New World and the Old, often to the detriment of the former. It also treats in a profound way the themes of personal freedom, responsibility, and betrayal

A Guide to Men by Helen Rowland audiobook.
Genre: comedy
A series of occasionally witty one-liners, poems and considerations on the subject of Men, Women and their Conjunction. By turns tender, bland, sexist (in both directions!) and funny.
From the text:
A man is like a park squirrel; if you fling your favors or your charms at his head he will never come up and eat out of your hand.
Even Satan could find a woman to call him 'Dearie,' if he would simply tell her that all he needed was 'a beautiful woman's uplifting influence.'
Every bride fancies that she married the original 'cave-man' until she tries to persuade him to go out and argue with the furniture-movers.

What Maisie Knew by Henry James audiobook.
Genre: drama
In late-19th-century England, young Maisie Farange becomes the unwilling prize in a bitter divorce, passed back and forth between two self-absorbed parents who treat custody as leverage and their child as a messenger, witness, and weapon. As Maisie grows, her world fills with shifting households, new marriages, and flirtations that blur the lines between guardianship and desire. With a keen, observant mind and a hunger for stability, she tries to make sense of adult motives that are rarely spoken plainly and never entirely innocent. Around her orbit a small cast of caretakers and would-be protectors - some genuinely kind, others opportunistic - each claiming to know what is best for her while pursuing private agendas. Through Maisie's limited but sharpening perspective, Henry James builds a tense moral drama about innocence and knowledge, manipulation and responsibility, and the quiet resilience it takes for a child to claim an inner life amid relentless emotional bargaining. As pressure mounts and loyalties fracture, Maisie must decide whom to trust and what kind of future she can choose for herself.
