Listen to It's a Don's Life by Mary Beard
Enjoy this audiobook with MP3 Audiobook Player - the ultimate iOS audiobook experience
Mary Beard's by now famous blog A Don's Life has been running on the TLS website for nearly three years. In it she has made her name as a wickedly subversive commentator on the world in which we live. Her central themes are the classics, universities and teaching - and much else besides. What are academics for? Who was the first African Roman emperor? Looting - ancient and modern. Are modern exams easier? Keep lesbos for the lesbians. Did St Valentine exist? What made the Romans laugh? That is just a small taste of this selection (and some of the choicer responses) which will inform, occasionally provoke and cannot fail to entertain.
Audiobooks have made my long drives enjoyable, and this app is my co-pilot. ListenBook's powerful audio downloading features are a game-changer – I can have my audiobooks ready in no time. Tone adjustment is an innovative touch that adds a personal connection to the audiobook narration. It's like having a custom reading experience.
Precise controls on ListenBook give me complete command over my audio playback. This app's dedication to providing high-quality narration has made all the difference. Great app for listening to lectures and speeches. Highly useful! This app is perfect for audiobook lovers. The interface is beautiful and easy to navigate. Solid performance overall though some character voices sounded too similar. I occasionally got confused about who was speaking in dialogue-heavy scenes.
Binaural audio processing on ListenBook is a thoughtful addition that keeps my ears comfortable during extended listening sessions. ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a game-changer for immersive listening in any environment. No more converting files – this app effortlessly handles various formats, saving me time and effort.
Adjusting the narrator's voice tone is a fun way to personalize the listening experience. With features like auto-rewind, I never lose my place when I pause listening. Looping playback is an invaluable tool for my study sessions. It helps me grasp complex concepts. I love how customizable the playback speed is. It makes listening so much more enjoyable.
ListenBook's absence of synchronization requirements adds to its convenience and flexibility. Easy chapter navigation and beautiful design make this app stand out. I love the ability to change the playback pitch. It’s a unique feature. I love the ability to import books from my computer. It’s so easy.
Automated artwork and metadata extraction make my library look organized and visually appealing. An acceptable audiobook that met basic expectations. No complaints about quality but nothing remarkable either. Would listen to this narrator again but wouldn't seek them out.
