Listen, America!

Is this normal these days? I was surprised to hear that Oxford has just released an audio version of Fundamentalist U. I hope that means more people can interact with the book in one format or another.

Now…for your listening pleasure…

If you are a listener rather than a reader, I hope this new format helps you get into the book.

I didn’t know that academic presses were issuing audio versions. Is that a twenty-first century kind of thing that my twentieth-century brain just needs to get used to?

    I would have wanted you to read it. Who did they cast? Someone with a British accent?

    About half the books I consume are in the form of audio books from the library. I have a long commute and it’s the best way to fill the time without losing my marbles. They’re too expensive for me to buy though.
