I was able to find it on sale at Audible for around $5 so I thought I'd get it and listen to it in my car on the way to and from work. The audio file, titled The Berlin Stories , contained both Goodbye to Berlin and The Last of Mr. Norris which is a novella that takes place prior to the events in Goodbye to Berlin. Audible is a great website to find and download audio books to listen to. I have a 45 minute commute to work so I find I prefer to listen to books instead of music because it helps to pass the time.
