New Delhi, July 14: Tired of reading content in a book format?
Now, mobile phones can be an alternative as a leading publisher has come up with, what it claims, to be the first work of fiction in the Indian subcontinent in SMS format.
According to HarperCollins India, Pinki Virani’s “Deaf Heaven” is the first literary cell-novel and an adult audio-mobile book in the subcontinent.
The literary cell-novel will be made available in 90 SMSes and the adult audio-mobile book in two short-duration downloads by Reliance Mobile.
“As publishers, we are always looking to expand reach and to find innovative ways of creating synergy through related media, so this is a first which will hopefully lead to several other experiments in the field,” says HarperCollins India CEO P M Sukumar.
