The World I Live In by Helen Keller ~ Full Audiobook [biography]

The Repairman by Harry Harrison audiobook.

Genre: scifi

In a sleek, automated future where machines run nearly everything, the people who can still fix those machines have become an afterthought. The Repairman follows one of the last true troubleshooters, a working-class specialist who spends his days crawling through service ducts, hunting down faults in systems that most citizens no longer understand and no longer want to think about. When a critical breakdown ripples outward from a seemingly minor failure, he is pulled from routine calls into the bright, bureaucratic world that depends on uninterrupted technology. There, corporate rules, spotless control rooms, and complacent managers collide with the messy reality of maintenance: things wear out, connections fail, and somebody has to get their hands dirty. As pressure mounts to restore operations quickly and quietly, the repairman must rely on his practical ingenuity, hard-won instincts, and a stubborn sense of professional pride to navigate a society that values convenience over competence. Witty, sharp, and unsettlingly plausible, Harry Harrison's story explores status, responsibility, and what happens when progress leaves essential people behind.
