Before I start, I must admit I've never liked the thought of audiobooks, as I would prefer to read the book myself as I find it more involving.
However, I am having trouble sleeping and have bought a headband with bluetooth earphones and am looking for recommendations of audio books to make me drowsy.
I have my first book. "Brideshead Revisited" read by Jeremy Irons, ready to go. I have read it several times so know that the plot holds no surprises and find Jeremy Iron's voice to be soothing, almost soporific, so is ideal.
I am looking for recommendations of the right book with the perfect reader. I had thought of Trollope, Dickens or Arnold Bennett as being suitable, but have no idea of the ideal reader for any of these. I am happy to accept any suggestions for books that are ideal to "sleep by," and which are read by the right reader for this situation.
Thanks.
