I particularly like autobiographies read by the author. A great sun-genre is comedian autobiographies since they’re already good storytellers. Three fine ones are: Martin Short’s “I must say”, Trevor Noah’s “Born a crime” and Guy Barnum’s “My Life as a Goddess”<p>Unrelated but well worth hearing is “On the road” by Jack Kerouac, read by Sean Penn.

It is not an &quot;audiobook&quot; per se, but a &quot;audiodrama&quot; based on an old booklet which itself was converted to a complete book later on:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=gUguP3vZP0s" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=gUguP3vZP0s</a>
