Request Storytel India to produce Vasu Naka audiobook
The Issue
As a visually impaired audiobook listener, audiobooks are my primary way of enjoying literature. Vasu Naka, written by the acclaimed Bhau Padhye, is an important masterpiece of Marathi literature, and I would love to experience it in an accessible audio format.
Currently, many visually impaired individuals, like myself, rely on audiobooks to access the world of literature. While advancements in technology have made a vast array of books accessible, there are still significant gaps, especially in regional literature such as Marathi masterpieces like Vasu Naka. Having access to this book in audio format would be a godsend not only for me but for many others who value and cherish Marathi literature.
Bhau Padhye’s works have left a profound impact on Marathi culture, with Vasu Naka being a significant piece. It delves into themes and narratives that resonate with many and deserves to be heard and appreciated widely. Making it available on Storytel India would ensure that this literary gem can reach a broader audience, including those who are blind or visually impaired.
Storytel India has been an admirable platform providing access to literature in multiple languages. However, including Vasu Naka in their audiobook collection would not only enrich their Marathi offerings but also demonstrate a commitment to inclusivity and accessibility for users with disabilities.
I humbly request Storytel to consider producing this audiobook so that not only I, but many other Marathi literature lovers and visually impaired readers, can enjoy this remarkable work. It is my sincere hope that Storytel will take positive action on this request. Let’s encourage Storytel India to expand its catalog with this important work. Please sign this petition to show your support for this cause.
