RE: Musing 36
Yay! Another audiobook lover! So hard to find here. Been bashed about the head with them by people who find them a waste of time. But I have no time to waste so I MUST also read per audiobook. Plus they make such nice company if you find the right narrators. Friends for life doubled (author+narrator). Oh at least 50 a year (although Knausgaard and Stendhal slowed me down, and the planned Proust may too!), easily. Prepare 1095 meals to them a year (b'fast, lunch, dinner). Often running 3-4 books at one time! (Alan Watts for b'fast; Nesbo's Macbeth for lunch; Burnt Out Case by Green during my walk (but almost finished so then next A Short History of Tractors - Lewycka), must fit in the last bit of Charterhouse of Parma during cooking, and might wander off into the night on The Silk Roads by Peter Frankopan.)
