the saddest story i've listened to as an audiobook

Cyrus Duffleman finds himself in good company over at Iambik sharing space with arguably the greatest overlooked novel of the twentieth century, Ford Madox Ford's The Good Soldier.

Okay, so Ford may be the canonical genius, the great one I just mentioned as the most overlooked--yeah, but you know better to listen to what I say, and all that, but I would suggest that Cyrus's sloppy, sad-sack routines can give Ford's narrator a run for his sadness. Unless you find his troubles to be amusing.
