Histories of the book often move straight from the codex to the digital screen. Left out of that familiar account are nearly 150 years of audio recordings. Recounting the fascinating history of audio-recorded literature, Matthew Rubery traces the path of innovation from Edison’s recitation of “Mary Had a Little Lamb” for his tinfoil phonograph in 1877, to the first novel-length talking books made for blinded World War I veterans, to today’s billion-dollar audiobook industry. The Untold Story of the Talking Book focuses on the social impact of audiobooks, not just the technological history, in telling a story of surprising and impassioned conflicts: from controversies over which books the Library of Congress selected to become talking books—yes to Kipling, no to Flaubert—to debates about what defines a reader. Delving into the vexed relationship between spoken and printed texts, Rubery argues that storytelling can be just as engaging with the ears as with the eyes, and that audiobooks deserve to be taken seriously. They are not mere derivatives of printed books but their own form of entertainment. We have come a long way from the era of sound recorded on wax cylinders, when people imagined one day hearing entire novels on mini-phonographs tucked inside their hats. Rubery tells the untold story of this incredible evolution and, in doing so, breaks from convention by treating audiobooks as a distinctively modern art form that has profoundly influenced the way we read.

In de laatste tien jaar is op weblogs en sociale media een literaire cultuur opgebloeid -- van onderop-- vanuit de grenzeloze mogelijkheden van het internet, zonder bemiddeling van grote institutionele spelers. Tot wat voor soort poëzie heeft dit geleid? En kan er nog vernieuwing zijn als er geen grenzen aan snelheid en toegankelijkheid zijn? Aan de hand van werk van auteurs als Jeroen Mettes, Gertrude Stein, Arjen Duinker, Thoreau, Goldsmith en Scalapino onderzoekt Samuel Vriezen deze vragen. Hij situeert ze in een bredere wereld van muziek, beeldende kunst en politiek, en signaleert de punten waarop het alomvattende netwerk stukloopt. Samuel Vriezen heeft veel gepubliceerd over dit onderwerp -- op zijn weblog 'Vriezen vindt, ' op internetfora, op sociale media en in tijdschriften. Hij heeft zijn teksten grondig bewerkt en uitgebreid voor dit boek. Een bewuste keuze, want er is geen beter hulpmiddel voor een genuanceerd betoog dan een boek, geen indringender dialoogbevorderaar tussen schrijver en lezer dan een boek. Het internet blijft, maar het boek beklijft.
