Episode 8: Book Blurbs
Manage episode 344101173 series 3227111
A blurb is, to quote Gelett Burgess, who invented the term in 1907, "a flamboyant advertisement" found on the front and back covers of books. Do we need blurbs? Do we like blurbs? And can blurbs help you make up a convincing first line of book that fools your friends?? We play the Book Game from Bookstr and discuss the history and usefulness of book blurbs. Fun fact: this is the first episode of Biblio Banter that we recorded.
