The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Audiobook for FREE

cheapskat1 Comment

thesecretlifeofwaltermittyAudible is still offering James Thurber’s The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Audiobook for FREE for a limited time.

Comedy superstar Ben Stiller (Zoolander, Tropic Thunder), who directs and stars in the upcoming The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, here narrates the classic James Thurber short story on which his film adaptation is based.

The mild-mannered Mitty escapes his extremely humdrum and ineffectual existence by leaping into a myriad of fantasies – imaginative daydreams that range from piloting a Navy plane to performing as a brilliant surgeon to coolly leaning against the wall of a firing squad, all while escorting his wife on their regular shopping trip to Danbury, Connecticut.

This well-known and beloved tale has launched its famous protagonist into the cultural lexicon, warranting his inclusion in English-language dictionaries and countless anthologies. Stiller’s imaginative performance as Mitty is the perfect re-introduction to the classic character and is a great preface to the upcoming film, for old fans and new listeners alike.

Dan Ariely’ Predictably Irrational Kindle Ebook for $1.99

predictablyirrationalAmazon is offering Dan Ariely’s Predictably Irrational, Revised and Expanded Edition: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions for Kindle for $1.99 ($15.99 value) for a limited time.

Irrational behavior is a part of human nature, but as MIT professor Ariely has discovered in 20 years of researching behavioral economics, people tend to behave irrationally in a predictable fashion. Drawing on psychology and economics, behavioral economics can show us why cautious people make poor decisions about sex when aroused, why patients get greater relief from a more expensive drug over its cheaper counterpart and why honest people may steal office supplies or communal food, but not money. According to Ariely, our understanding of economics, now based on the assumption of a rational subject, should, in fact, be based on our systematic, unsurprising irrationality. Ariely argues that greater understanding of previously ignored or misunderstood forces (emotions, relativity and social norms) that influence our economic behavior brings a variety of opportunities for reexamining individual motivation and consumer choice, as well as economic and educational policy. Ariely’s intelligent, exuberant style and thought-provoking arguments make for a fascinating, eye-opening read.

A Charlie Brown Christmas Kindle Ebook for FREE

cheapskatLeave a comment

acharliebrownchristmasAmazon is offering Charles M. Schulz’s A Charlie Brown Christmas for Kindle for FREE ($4.95 value) for a limited time.

Just like It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and A Charlie Brown Valentine, this illustrated read-along seeks to re-create the popular Peanuts TV show of the same name. This edition also includes a four-song sampler CD from jazz-great Vince Guaraldi’s brilliant soundtrack.
With illustrator Paige Braddock aping Charles Schulz’s style, A Charlie Brown Christmas retells the Emmy Award-winning program blow-by-blow (with a few omissions), from the ice-skating opening scene to preparations for the school pageant to Charlie Brown’s ill-fated Christmas tree rescue. Braddock almost perfectly mimics the show’s cast and backdrops, but just as no one could be fooled by even expert impersonation of a loved one, Peanuts fans might find the niggling differences distracting (whether it’s Schroeder’s too-wavy hair or Pig Pen’s just-too-small head).

A “novelization” like this probably can’t ever hope to completely recapture the charm of the original, even if it had used Schulz’s original art. Although the dialogue has been faithfully reproduced, much of the story’s subtle appeal and cultural subtext gets lost in the book’s simplified exposition–which is too bad, given that these are precisely the qualities which have made the show (and Schulz’s timeless strip) so durable and well-loved in the first place. (Ages 4 to 8) –Paul Hughes
