Genji on audiobook
as she drives to her lover . . .

The Tale of Genji is an 11th century Japanese saga written by Murasaki Shikibu, and is considered by many to be the world’s first real novel. Full disclosure: I am indeed listening to it on Audible right now (and have also read it several times), but the lover I was driving to with Genji-like ardor was a serving of amazing strawberry shortcake at Beth’s Farm Market, which might be better than sex!
