Audiobook Review
Seascraper (2025)
by Benjamin Wood
I'm sure I only heard about Seascraper, by English novelist Benjamin Wood, because it was longlisted for the 2025 Booker Prize. It was a good pick for an Audiobook because it is set in seaside village in the English countryside, so you get some good regional accents. There is also a strong musical element in the plot, and in the Audiobook you actually get to hear the song that the protagonist writes in a moment of inspiration. The setting is literally atmospheric- with dense, wet fog playing a key role in the development of the plot. And, winningly, Seascaper is brief enough to be considered a novella, thought personally I would go with short novel.
