OMG – I am so much more excited about the other audio project that RA is apparently cooking up.
This is not contemporary either, but this sounds like a truly interesting book. The Tattooist of Auschwitz is not a work of fiction but a biography/documentary of sorts, written by Australian author Heather Morris who interviewed the *actual* tattooist of Auschwitz and got the project published thanks to a Kickstarter campaign. There is a video on the Kickstarter page which gives you the story in a nutshell.

What an interesting project. I can’t wait to hear more about this!
Audible? This is something I’m more interested in listening to than Dickens or Jekyll and Hyde. And an Aussie author to boot!

No, I think the name of the audio publisher Bonnier Zaffre? Interestingly, a London-based publisher of new fiction… http://www.bonnierzaffre.co.uk/

Correction – Audible it is! (My info only applied to the publisher of the book…)
PS: You should invite author Heather Morris to join the Australian chapter of the Armitage Army. Check this:

Audible already has the book on pre-order. I’ve asked them to confirm it’s Richard’s recording, on Twitter. I’m surprised Richard himself hasn’t snatched it up for his production company. The story has ‘Oscars’ written all over it.
If I may be allowed a shallow observation about the photographs, I love his red jumper! 😍

Interesting – so it *is* Audible. I guess the audio rights were sold separately to the book. Probably makes sense because Bonnier Zaffre doesn’t seem to have an audio arm…
The sweater jumped out at me, too – very understated… Looked almost like a simple sweat shirt…

Very cool! I’m not big into nonfiction but it sounds like a fascinating topic and anything WWII is interesting to me, so I’m pretty stoked. Who knows- might be that RA kicks me into a nonfiction appreciation- stranger things have happened in his honor. LOL

This sounds great. Much more interesting than Wolverine, though that could be fun.
