Authors Reading Audio & Video The 'Authors Reading' section has classic works which are read in excerpts or as a whole by the authors that wrote them. The Harper Collins' imprint Caedmon Audio contains many recordings of authors and poets reading their own work such as Dylan Thomas reading of " A Child's Christmas in Wales". The American Audio Prose Library also features dozens of contemporary authors reading excerpts of their work. But you'll also find authors here reading their books in their entirety with William Peter Blatty's narration of " The Exorcist" and William Golding's narration of "Lord of the Flies". Rhino Entertainment also puts out a few great modern poets reading their work with " Charles Bukowski: Hostage" and " Call Me Burroughs". |
