• Description existante : « Originally published in 2006 by Running Press, Sean Stewart and Jordan Weisman's Cathy's Book is a hybrid literary work, an interactive novel that manages to work both as a teen mystery and as an interactive game with enough literary chops and facsimile evidence, Web-based clues, and cleverly embedded animation to satisfy both the writing and gaming camps. Cathy's Book, and two follow-ups, Cathy's Key and Cathy's Ring, have sold well (120,000, 59,000, and 34,000 copies, respectively), and to attract a new audience, Running Press has developed an iPhone and iPod/Touch app. Released at the end of 2009, the Cathy's Book iPhone/iPod app managed to anticipate the current fascination with enriched e-books—online or downloadable content that uses a combination of video, animation, sound, and even multiple plot lines in addition to text—and marks the evolution of the experimental hypertext novel of the 1990s into a popular (and genuinely commercial) digital format, rich with multimedia storytelling potential. »

• Commentaire :

À lier avec Umberto Eco, le livre. Il s'est inspiré de Borges et de sa nouvelle: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Biblioth%C3%A8que_de_Babel
