Description existante: « You've never experienced a novel like this. TOC is a multimedia epic about time: the invention of the second, the beating of a heart, the story of humans connecting through time to each other and to the world. An evocative fairy tale with a steampunk heart, TOC is a breath-taking visual novel, an assemblage of text, film, music, photography, the spoken word, animation, and painting. It is the story of a man who digs a hole so deep he can hear the past, a woman who climbs a ladder so high she can see the future, as well as others trapped in the clockless, timeless time of a surgery waiting room: God's time. Theirs is a history of people who are fixed in the past, those who have no word for the future, and those who live out their days oblivious to both. A novel that uses words, music, exquisite illustration, and animation to tell its story, TOC re-imagines what the book can be. When read on the iPad, TOC retains the intimate, one-on-one experience that a reader can have with a book as it draws on the power of other art forms to immerse readers in an altogether new multimedia story.» Source: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/toc-new-media-novel-by-steve/id547077664?mt=8 [site consulté le 15 juillet 2016]

Ma description: TOC est le livre numérique qui précède Pry des mêmes auteurs. Moins novateur que ce dernier au niveau des interactions, celles-ci restent tout de même le centre du moteur du récit.
