Compilation and Introductory Material ©2006 Joesphine Hart; (P)2006 Hachette Audio and British Library

Members Reviews:

For those who think they don't like poetry.

I was only exposed to metaphysical poets in high school and developed an aversion for adult poetry. There are much read children's poetry books on my shelf but the gifts of Auden, Frost ,TS Eliot etc. have sat unread and unappreciated. I woke up to the fact that I need to HEAR poetry after a visit to my brother who can recite reams of it. Catching Life by The Throat was my first venture into really listening to poetry. This is a great selection with interesting commentary and excellent readers. Who knew that Roger Moore could do such a good job with Kipling?

Inaudible

I was attracted to this compilation by the list of poetry readers and the persuasive introduction included as an audio sample for the prospective purchaser to listen to. Unfortunately while this introduction was recorded in a studio and is very clear, the readings themselves are so poorly recorded and so faint that it makes listening to them extremely difficult, particularly if one is somewhere noisy such as in a car.

Members Reviews:

fascinating!

I thoroughly enjoyed this explanation of how audiobooks are recorded. Very understandable and well-edited to keep your attention.

Behind the Scenes at BBC audiobooks

This is a fascinating panel discussion by producers and performers of BBC audiobooks. The observations of the performers have opened my ears to nuances in the readings, but the real revelation is the role of the producer in coordinating and giving coherence to the recording sessions.

Interesting and Entertaining

I thoroughly enjoyed this audio. It was interesting to hear about the production aspects, but the best part were the stories that both the producers and readers had to tell.

Fascinating behind the scenes

If you could sum up Reading Between The Lines in three words, what would they be?

This is a great overview of the work done behind the scenes to record audiobooks by some of the best in the field. Highly enjoyable. Funny and entertaining.

What did you like best about this story?

It sounded like a lot of fun.

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

not applicable

Interesting - but beware

I've just listened to this and found some of it quite interesting and several times wanted to butt in myself and comment but I was dismayed that a member of the panel was allowed to give away the ending of the book 'Gentlemen and Players' by Joanne Harris. I was currently reading (not listening to) this book and there was no warning that the twist in the tale would be revealed. I suppose I will finish reading but the fact that the ending has been revealed has spoiled it for me.
