I recently obtained an enormous selection of audiobooks in MP3 format from a company in England called Audiobooksforfree.com. They insert very short little promos at the beginning of each chapter, and that’s how they are able to supply these books for free. They can be downloaded off the Internet or obtained in bulk. Of course, one takes the risk of getting crud or worse, abridged titles, but they are free. I was poking around through the selections and stumbled on this little gem. Even though it’s abridged, the episodic nature of the chapters means that the abridgement could be done without castrating the content, as is usually the case.
Debby Bull was a Rolling Stone editor and writer who became very depressed after the end of a love affair, and her book describes the odd little events and observations on her way through serious soul-searching. The best therapy, of the many she tried, was canning jellies and jams, and her comments before, during and after the recipes are hilarious. You will laugh out loud. Sheila and I listened to the book while traveling and both of us enjoyed it immensely. Listen to it. It's just great.
