What I Talk About When I Talk About Audiobooks

Very rarely do I link to another blog or website, but I just found the coolest (read: nerdiest) thing on the whole Interwebs and needed to spread the word. If you're like me and you live for literature and music then you have to check out Christophe Gowans's absolutely awesome page The Record Books. Basically, it's a bunch of classic albums re-imagined as books. You only get the front covers but, even so, it's inspired brilliance. My personal favourites: Horses by Patti Smith, Surfer Rosa by The Pixies, Bad by Michael Jackson and Master of Puppets by Metallica. The only downside? The hours you'll waste cursing that these books don't actually exist!
