The value of classics of a classic is the following:
- use of language
- perspective
- narrative tools
There are more but what remains as a classic is often that which for one reason or another has been deemed as a good enough encapsulation of the era by the literary community to recommend to the next. Something that they deem is a staple to the literary world.

Just as etymology gives insight to what a word means, past classics shine light on current and thought. Though our lives vastly differ from the Greeks, their past, thought and perspective greatly influenced our own.

I've never considered different genres being easier to audiobook.

I'm split on alone-leisure. If people are around, I'll always pull towards doing stuff with people but lately I have been wanting to become more recluse, but I definitely cannot just read it a book for 6+ hrs straight. Only for a deadline. Nevertheless, thanks for the insights.
