Abstract

Interest in audiobooks has grown significantly in recent years. Various platforms are emerging that offer audiobooks and new technologies to facilitate their creation and distribution. The paper traces their therapeutic effect on the modern reader who, as a listener, may experience a different feeling while getting to know a certain story. A theoretical comparison is made between the book experience of visual reading and audio playback, and the advantages of modern audiobooks in the context of the bibliotherapy method are pointed out.
