The Audiobook Question

from The Wordy Pair Podcast Hosted by Rudolph Kohn and Justin Fraser

In this episode, we consider a controversial question about audiobooks: are they "reading?" This takes us into the issue of writing and the need for precise language. If I told you someone read a book on a train, what would you visualize? We talk about elitism in reading circles while also noting the need for language that creates the correct perception in readers.
