Available exclusively for iPads, the eLume bookshelf allows you to download and experience eLumes from Orson & Co.

An eLume is a hand-crafted eLuminated manuscript that expands the frontiers of touchscreen storytelling without sacrificing the integrity of reading.

Audio books are fully synched with the text. Illustrations can be tapped to reveal windows into the world of the story. Video and images galleries bring history into focus. And music referenced in a scene can be played on the page when you read about it.

Social media and other features are integrated but not distracting. Gone is the digital photocopy effect of ebooks. Each eLume looks like itself and nothing else.

Featured titles include:

Harriet Sergeant’s Among the Hoods, narrated by Joanna Lumley

Tom Sancton’s homage to New Orleans jazz, Song for My Fathers

The début novel from John Steinbeck Award winner Benj Hewitt,
When I Come Around

Richard Masons "glittering confection" (NY Times), History of a Pleasure Seeker

Leslie Maitlands award-winning war memoir, Crossing the Borders of Time

We believe digital reading can be meaningful. As artists and storytellers, we are committed to tech that doesn’t distract readers from the experience of books, music and art.

We also believe digital books can and should be beautiful. Lovingly typeset and exquisitely designed, the eLume is “at the forefront of a new medium” (Departures) and has been described by the toughest critic in tech as “the single best digital book interface I have seen in my life”.
