Thinking Voice Reading Voice

The Voice You Hear When You Read Silently by Thomas Luxe is not silent, it is a speaking- out-loud voice in your head; it is “spoken”, a voice is “saying” it as you read. It's the writer's words, of course, in a literary sense his or her 'voice' but the sound of that voice is the sound of “your” voice. Not the sound your friends know or the sound of a tape played back but your voice caught in the dark cathedral of your skull,

your voice heard by an internal ear informed by internal abstracts and what you know by feeling, having felt. It is your voice saying, for example, the word 'barn' that the writer wrote but the 'barn' you say is a barn you know or knew. The voice in your head, speaking as you read, never says anything neutrally-

some people hated the barn they knew, some people love the barn they know so you hear the word loaded and a sensory constellation is lit: horse-gnawed stalls, hayloft, black heat tape wrapping a water pipe, a slippery spilled “chirr” of oats from a split sack, the bony, filthy haunches of cows...

And 'barn' is only a noun- no verb or subject has entered into the sentence yet! The voice you hear when you read to yourself is the clearest voice: you speak it speaking to you.
