Catching the Big Fish
June 15th, 2007 | by A T M |This week has been the week of Audio Books.
I am ‘reading’ these…
Seven habits of Highly Effective people – Stephen Covey
Catching the Big Fish – by David Lynch, (Culty Film-maker)
The download of “Brief History of Time” is underway.
The one which I am most eagerly waiting to hear is the Scott Adams’ Joy of Work. I must have read the paper book zillion times for the wit and the humour.
Would I enjoy it the way I have enjoyed the paper edition…??! mm curious.
Audio books are especially good if the narrator is the author himself.
He will go with the same pace and spirit with which the book was put together. But you will not enjoy the randomness of flipping and skipping of the boring lines. This is more for a sequential reader.
Nevertheless, it’s a nice change from text to sound. If you have a portable mp3 player, they are great time killers on Bangalore roads.
You also can make an audio book. How ?
Choose your favourite book. Pick your favorite pages. Use a recorder. Burn it on a media.
Gift this out to your loved ones.
