"Gandhi" is one of those names of which no one asks, "
which Gandhi are you talking about?" Mohandas K. (Mahatma) Gandhi stood head and shoulders above the rest of them in fame.
Chirp Books (which sells audiobooks only, it appears), in just the last few days, has started offering
Gandhi: An Autobiography for the amazing price of only
$3.99; the "original" (retail?) price is $27.95. Check into it at
this webpage.
Someone in this subforum mentioned
Chirp audiobooks a couple of months ago. I have been monitoring the website since then to figure out what it is all about. Well, for one thing, it's about very, very low prices on audiobooks! The average price on an audiobook at Chirp is about the price of an
Audible daily special!
Chirp always seems to have a large selection of audiobooks available. They generally seem to add one or two per day. But, then, as they did a few days ago, they "dump" a huge amount of audiobooks (numbering in the
hundreds) on their website. I don't know, yet, with what regularity, if there is a regularity, that they do this.
For the procrastinators among us (you know who you are
), you're in luck. It appears that the most-recently added titles, at least, will stay the same price for a month or so.
(Note: the Gandhi autobiography is in the public domain. Doing a spot-check, it appears that almost none of the others on Chirp are. Don't think LibriVox! The narrator of the audiobook, Bill Wallace, is an established narrator, and apparently is in great demand (see
https://www.audible.com/search?keywo...l+Wallace&ref=). I listened to the entire sample for the Gandhi audiobook, and I think that he is quite good).
