An Beal Bocht Audiobook

An Béal Bocht  is considered one of the classics of literature from Ireland. And of the Irish language in particular. It is a satire of the Irish language 'we had it tough' growing up books like that of Peig Sayers. It is here in the list of 100 important Irish artworks. And has an English translation called the Poor Mouth. 

There is a great sort 2018 animated version here and Graphic novel with the same drawings. But there is no Irish language audiobook version. This is unfortunate as it would help learners and audiobooks in general are useful for disabled and older people also. 



Mercier press publishes an Béal Bocht, their email is info@mercierpress.ie  The email I send said asking for an Audiobook version was

A Chara

I am trying to learn Irish at the moment. And I really enjoy reading An Béal Bocht. The learning method I use involves listening to the audiobook at the same time as reading the book. 

Unfortunately I cannot find an audiobook version of An Béal Bocht. Is there one available?
