Which classics/lit in general is best to listen to in audiobook form? I'm asking because I'm going on a solo hiking trip soon, walking 20-25 miles a day. Instead of being bored as fuck, I'm hoping I can knock out some books which are relatively easy to understand in audio form (e.g. not fucking Pynchon).

What's a good place to start?

PS The longer, the better

Why don't you listen to music instead?

I actually typically listen to podcasts on hikes like these, reserving music for shorter trips. Just figured I might as well fit a good book or two in the mix.

Find some human interaction for fucks sake. Otherwise listen to some podcasts and not books. I'd recommend RE:Joyce if you've ever attempted Ulysses by Frank Delaney or The History of Rome and Revolutions by Mike Duncan.

Try The Iliad and The Odyssey if you haven't already read them.

I suggest translations of foreign classics, which are written in blander prose than English authors who are obviously trying to do unique things with language.

If I were you, though, I'd set myself up with some Stephen King or something on that level.

Where are you hiking btw? Camping too I take it? Can I ask why?

Thank you for the suggestions!

>Where are you hiking?

Centennial Trail in South Dakota, planning to finish in 5 days.

>Why?

Because I'm a sc/out/ and I like to take breaks from people every now and then. It's addicting.
