Story
This is not just another biography. For the first time, Jackie O: On the Couch highlights Jackie's life from her own perspective, as imagined by author Dr. Alma Bond, a psychoanalyst and long-time student of Jackie lore. The facts are all historically correct, as are the ideas, the Washington intrigue and politics, and the examination of the role of women in society and in the White House. Jackie speaks of her need to record her story truthfully - to replace the hodgepodge of lies published during her lifetime.

Rivka Ganuke, barely surviving her birth, was thrust into a conflicted world at the onset of the 20th century, a world of want, poverty and danger, a misogynistic world which had forever deprived women of equality. She rebelled at the obligation to fulfill age-old roles steeped in superstition and was denied the right to continue her education despite her brilliant mind.

28. dubna 1947 vyplul z Peruánského Callaa balzový vor se šesti muži a papouškem. Jeho kapitánem byl tehdy třiatřicetiletý Thor Heyerdahl a jejich cílem byla Polynésie. Thor Heyerdahl patří k nejznámějším objevitelům všech dob. Jeho pozoruhodný život a výpravy představují nevyčerpatelný pramen inspirace. Nikdo mu nevěřil, ve vědeckém světě se mu smáli. Jak by mohli Inkové doplout z Peru do Polynésie a osídlit ji? A jak se jim to podařilo, když neměli plavidla, která by byla schopná tu dálku překonat.

Story
Příběh Olgy Hepnarové, která jedním otočením volantu zabila osm lidí, poslední ženy odsouzené v Československu k trestu smrti. Bylo úterý 10. července roku 1973, krátce před druhou hodinou odpolední. Obyčejný všední den na pražské Letné. Pro jednu dvaadvacetiletou dívku však nebylo cesty zpátky. Nákladní auto, které řídila, prudce vybočilo z předpokládané dráhy, vřítilo se na chodník plný lidí, pak srovnalo kola a jízdou po chodníku těsně kolem stěny domů poráželo, přejíždělo a drtilo každého, kdo mu nestačil uhnout z cesty.

Story
Když baletky zmizí za oponou, obličej se zkřiví do ztrhaného šklebu, protože se dusí. Při tanci totiž nemohou dýchat pusou. Na utrpení jsou trénované. Próza tanečnice a režisérky Miřenky Čechové vychází z vlasních zkušeností a deníkových zápisů. Hlavní hrdince ještě nebylo čtrnáct, a už je odbornicí na používání projímadel, na ošetřování krvavých palců a stahování prsou. Poznává klubový život v Praze, sex a drogy, a zjišťuje, že má nevlastního bratra, který je úplně jiný, než by chtěla.

V Coelhově audioknize Vyzvědačka ožívá skutečný příběh Maty Hari, slavné kurtizány obviněné ze špionáže, která byla před sto lety popravena pro velezradu. Mata Hari byla tanečnice, šokující a těšící publikum za první světové války, a stala se důvěrnicí některých z nejbohatších a nejmocnějších mužů té doby. Odvážila se překonat moralismus a provinční mentalitu počátků 20. století, ale nakonec za to zaplatila vlastním životem.
