This month’s free audiobook from Christian Audio is The Man Who Was Thursday by G. K. Chesterton. It will only be available in March so don’t hang around. If you are too late than you can get free text/pdf copies of the individual copies of the confessions as shown in the links at the bottom of this article.
The Man Who Was Thursday is a novel about two poets, Gabriel Syme (a poet of law) and Lucian Gregory (a poetic anarchist).

As ever, it is only free this month so don’t waste any time downloading the mp3 if you are interested.
