Oh, and mine.
It was my habit for many years to travel with a book in my back pocket. In those pre-digital days pretty much every town in the world had an English language 'lending library'. i.e. there was at least one bar in town that had a bookshelf with a "bring one, take one" approach to lending.
I don't remember where I picked up my first copy, somewhere not English speaking, that I know. Perhaps it was Thailand.
Once I read the first book I pursued the other books, and then the recordings. Hence my love of this particular recording, since all I had was a Walkman.
