For those not using Audible, options like Google Play Books and Spotify Premium offer a range of audiobooks, though not necessarily the same collection.
Titchmarsh’s 2009 autobiography, Knave of Spades, offers a fascinating look at his journey from a schoolboy passionate about art to a celebrated gardener and broadcaster. Tracing his path from the Yorkshire Dales to Kew Gardens and eventually the BBC, this book has a solid 4.4 rating from 122 reviews. Readers have praised Titchmarsh’s humor and broad knowledge, though some found it less engaging.
Rounding out the selection is Best of Alan Titchmarsh, a 75-minute compilation of anecdotes from three of his memoirs. This shorter offering has a modest rating of 3.8 but still appeals to dedicated fans.
Amazon Prime members can take advantage of this limited-time Audible deal to enjoy Alan Titchmarsh’s gardening wisdom and stories for free—just don’t miss the July 31 deadline.
