Who is Julian Hayes?

Julian Hayes is an author about whom we can tell you refreshingly little, and we would rather admit that plainly than dress up guesswork as biography. There is no reliable public life story to relay, no roll-call of prizes, no carefully staged author persona: just a name on a cover. In an era when writers are expected to be brands first and authors second, there is something almost bracing about that.

What can be said with confidence is what sits in front of the listener. Hayes appears in our catalogue with The Digital Landlord, a title that wears its intentions openly and suggests a book aimed at readers with a practical turn of mind.

Practical, ideas-led listening has quietly become one of the strongest corners of the audiobook market: the format suits books you can absorb while doing something else entirely, and a title like The Digital Landlord promises exactly that sort of usefulness. The name points towards property and the online economy – territory that attracts listeners who judge a book by what they can do with it afterwards.

Our advice is to approach it as you would any guide from an author without a long paper trail: on its own merits, one chapter at a time, keeping whatever proves useful.
