The Book of Voices is e-poets’ living gallery of literature in text, spoken word, and multimedia; a literary collection lending context, a sense of place, and identity to aural poetry from artists throughout e-poets’ community. It illustrates what we mean when we advocate “aural literacy”: language and wisdom are no less valid when borne of breath instead of paper.
