Is there an audiobook of Madness and Civilization?
by Michel Foucault · essay
No — it is not on Audible.
We searched Audible’s catalogue for Madness and Civilization by Michel Foucault — under every title it is published as — and found no edition. Plenty of books never get one; it is a commercial decision, not a verdict on the book.
Audible catalogue checked 8 August 2026. Spotted one we missed? Tell us.
You can still listen to Madness and Civilization.
AllReads reads a copy you already own aloud — EPUB, PDF or plain text — in a natural AI voice, lighting each word as it is spoken and remembering where you stopped. That is about 9h 8m of listening at a normal narration pace. The voices run on your own OpenAI or xAI key, so narration is billed at cost instead of a subscription.
