I confess. I am hooked on audiobooks. Have been for the past fifteen years.
1. A fine article, in the Sunday, NY Times Book Review, addresses this increasingly popular pastime.
"Audiobooks are on the rise. Purchasable, downloadable, borrowable from the library, they are making ever deeper inroads into what publishers persist in calling (with touching optimism) 'the book market'.”
"The Minds Ear" is a short, eloquent exposition of this great gift: spoken books.
2.Peter Osnos, a writer for The Atlantic, has another fine article on audiobooks: "The Coming Audiobooks Boom."
3. Here is a third fine article on listening to books, this one by Jonathon Schwartz: "Wired for Sound."
