Tom Dunne: Taking the Audible route with Graham Norton, Marian Keyes and Stephen Fry

After failing to cancel my account, the daily diet of biographies, self-help books and other offerings has been a welcome accompaniment to my walks

Tom Dunne has been listening to books from the likes of Graham Norton, Marian Keyes and Stephen Fry.

I signed up to an Audible account whilst on morphine in 2018. I have learned a lot since then, not least through Stephen Hawking explaining the universe, the dawn of time and where God might be hiding. But at the back of mind the thing I have most learned is: don’t commit to a direct debit if you’ve taken morphine.

The first few months of 2019 I spent trying to cancel the direct debit. Somehow I have managed to accrue quite a few Amazon accounts. I seem to have more Amazon accounts that I have email addresses, which can’t be right. But nowhere could I see where I had signed up. The fact that Audible kept calling me ‘Audrey’ didn’t help.
