Reading Experience
At 28,104 words across roughly 112 pages, this one runs about 2.3 hours of reading time. Long enough to dig into its subject properly, short enough that it does not lose you along the way. For music & sound, this length tends to work well — room to develop ideas without padding.
About the Author
Atharva Inamdar was 17 when he wrote The Vinyl Collector's Guide in 2014. He had been writing for 7 years at that point, moving from childhood diaries into full-length books across multiple genres. Music writing from an author whose creative process — marathon sessions, emotional intensity, volume of output — has more in common with musicians than most writers.
