Tired eyes from staring at a screen all day? Give your eyes a break and dive into these audiobooks (有声读物), instead.

Ramblebook by Adam Buxton

The story of Adam Buxton’s life and upbringing might not sound like the most fascinating listen, but his fans will know that he switches between humour and bitterness to produce a show that’s regularly as moving as it is funny. Ramblebook is about the author’s childhood, friendships, and 1980s pop culture. The audiobook is better than the hard copy because Buxton is such a friendly guide.

A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson

The word “friendly” was invented to describe Bill Bryson, and you’re reminded why you hear him read his own books. Bryson’s genius lies in his ability to write about hard subjects — from Shakespeare to the human body — while making them seem so easy. It will teach you about everything from the Big Bang to modern physics, without ever feeling like a lesson.

Nomad by Alan Partridge

Sometimes you just want to hear something funny, in which case, this, the third volume in Alan Partridge’s memoirs (回忆录) is perfect. Having a comedian — particularly one with a voice as recognisable as Partridge’s — makes more sense than reading the text. As a rule, books by comedians almost always work better on audio.

The Best of Me by David Sedaris

If you’ve heard the humourist David Sedaris read his autobiographical (自传的) stories on Radio 4, you’ll know what to expect and are probably already a fan. Listening to the audiobook means you’re listening to his story, in its own unique voice.

Jack, Chicago, USA

“We used Walking Fiction in Paris, France, to learn about Ernest Hemingway-one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. We walked the streets of his 1964 novel, A Moveable Feast, and we sat in Café Les Deux Magots on Boulevard Saint Germain while we were reading parts of the book. Hemingway used to sit there when he lived in Paris in the 1920s.”

Marco, Rome, Italy

“Last year, we visited the real Penny Lane in Liverpool, England, from the Beatles song, Penny Lane, by songwriters Paul McCartney and John Lennon. The lyrics(歌词) of the song were written about that road because Paul and John used to meet at a bus terminal there when they were young.”

Lucy, Dublin, Ireland

“We used Walking Fiction to see a different side of Dublin, Ireland. Today, we’re imagining it’s 16th June, 1904, and we’re walking the streets of Dublin, just like Leopold Bloom, James Joyce’s most famous character from his book, Ulysses. With this app, ordinary events in fiction are really brought to life.”

Ann, London, UK

“We visited Hampshire, England, the home of Jane Austen and the imaginary heroines from her books, such as Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice. We were thinking about the weddings in Austen’s books when we finished her church, St. Nicholas. Jane Austen’s house in Chawton was turned into a museum and we finished our tour there. It was a great day!”
