Does anyone have a comprehensive list?
I think one good way for me to learn, would be to listen to an audiobook over and over again untill I understood it 100%.

I know Alice in Wonderland is in Esperanto, but ideally it would be a book that I would like to know inside and out.
The Count of Monte Cristo or Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance would be ones I would love to have in Esperanto, but that might be too much to hope for.
So... Anyone got a list/ collection of Esperanto audiobooks out there?

EDIT:
Or Plato's Republic.
Some sort of book that, having listened to it over and over and learned its meaning gradually, you become wiser in the ways of the world.

Any list of Esperanto audiobooks really.

[url=www.librivox.org]librivox.org[/url] has a few, all recited by volunteers. Just go there and type in Esperanto as your search term.

They have books about esperanto, or books about learning esperanto. But the only actual translated book I have been able to find so far is Alice in Wonderland.

Each to his own preferred method of learning.

However there is an important distinction between Esperanto and the national languages that makes rote learning, or learning by constant repetition, less appropriate in the case of Esperanto.

In principle, once you understand how Esperanto works, the difference between fluency and hesitant speech is just a matter of mental agility.

Once you have grasped the structure of Esperanto the sentences that you may generate, in the first instance only slowly after deliberation, are likely to be good Esperanto.

The issue which arises with national languages as to whether they are something a native speaker would say (with his profound knowledge of common usage in his language) is largely side-stepped.

I like the audiobook method too. What I have done is used one of the video2mp3 programs to convert Pasaporto al la Tuta Mondo into mp3, which makes it usable in the car. The videos are of course helpful. There's a lot of subtle humor.

Another choice is Esperanto podcasts.

But I'm with you. I wish there were more audiobooks in Esperanto.

The classical audio book is "Gerda Malaperis" ...
a short book, written for beginners. The reading of the whole book takes 91 minutes.

Some one commented on converting "Pasporto" to mp3. You can do that with Mazi. In this page you will find a link to the whole text of the 3 Mazi videos:

Someone recommended books read by volunteers ...
Chapters within a book can be read by different people. The pronunciation in some of those chapters is not that good.

Good luck in learning Esperanto!
I have used Esperanto during a little more than a half century.
