In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Laura Moe and actor Preston Geer discuss their collaboration on the audio book for Laura’s young adult novel, Breakfast with Neruda. This novel is the award-winning first book in a trilogy that includes, Blue Valentines and The Language of the Son. When the time came for Laura to make Breakfast with Neruda into an audio book, she began her search for the perfect narrator. Then she heard actor Preston Geer’s sample, and she knew she had found the one. In addition to being a working actor in Hollywood, Preston is the narrator of almost 70 audio books, so Breakfast with Neruda was in safe hands. In this episode, I’ll chat with Laura and Preston about their audio book journey, why a request from a Hollywood producer became the catalyst for turning the novel into an audio book, and Laura’s preparation to turn the novel into a screenplay for a streaming series.
