The 16th April sees the UK release of The Ghost, the latest film from director Roman Polanski. It is based on the novel by Robert Harris and stars Ewan McGregor as a ghost writer hired to work on the memoirs of former UK prime minister Adam Lang played by Pierce Brosnan. Also starring, as Lang's wife, is Silksoundbooks star audio book reader, Olivia Williams.

Olivia is well known for her star performances in The Sixth Sense, Rushmore and Miss Austen Regrets. Her role in the BBC production of Jane Austen’s Emma brought her to the attention of Kevin Costner, who cast her in The Postman and described her as “one of the most beautiful women to come on screen in the last 10 years.”

Olivia continues her love of Jane Austen with her exclusive Silksoundbooks unabridged audio book version of Persuasion, one of the world’s favourite classic novels.

So if you can't make it to the cinema this weekend, or you are grounded by the volcanic dust cloud over Europe, why not download an audio book from Silksoundbooks!!
