Philip Pullman - The Guardian: Short Stories Podcasts: 12 Tales for Christmas Unabridged AudioBook | 2010 | Genre: General Fiction | English | ISBN-13: N/A | MP3 64Kb | Collection | 308.5 MB The Guardian's head of audio looks forward to a new series of podcasts, featuring leading authors reading short stories by other writers. . Saturday's an exciting day for us in the audio department. We're launching our new series of podcasts, but podcasts with a difference. We've invited some of the country's top authors to read us their favourite short story by another writer. So you'll hear Philip Pullman reading Chekhov, Rose Tremain reading Yiyun and William Boyd reading JG Ballard, and then discuss why they chose those particular stories. . We're running 12 of these from Saturday every day until Christmas. But it's been a project that we've been working on since the summer, when the Guardian's Review editor Lisa Allardice came up with the idea. She says: "We're familiar with audio books, but with writers choosing their favourite story they bring something of themselves to the reading. . "Julian Barnes surprised us with his choice of Hemingway's Homage to Switzerland. Hemingway's known as a really macho writer but Barnes said he chose this piece to show the other, more witty side of Hemingway." Over the last six months we've seen a succession of literary giants passing through the Guardian's multimedia hub, ushered in to our studio by our producers to record, re-record and retake their readings. Producer Tim Maby was surprised at how authors are now so used to reading aloud they even move the microphones to where it best suits them: "Anne Enright, for instance, likes to hug it." Tim says Rose Tremain commented that all writers like showing off, while Philip Pullman revealed he loves talking in to a mic. . For me, as head of audio here at the Guardian, it's a particularly exciting series, because these recordings really show why podcasting is so much better than radio: they will remain on our website and on iTunes and be a resource for people forever. You don't have to be sitting next to your wireless at a certain time to catch them. . So ... here's the running order. Hope you all enjoy them! .
