"Goodnight Mister Tom is a children's novel by English author Michelle Magorian, published [...] in 1981." 1981 + 92 -> public domain it the US not before 2076. And with Ms. Magorian still happily alive, anybody outside the US will likely have to wait much longer until it is public domain in their ...

My greatest apology; I didn't make the time to read The Fifteenth Man, nor will I have time today. If anyone does, the version currently in Librivox is 25 minutes long.

Hi May I please read a poem by Gertrude Stein from Stanzas in Meditation: Stanza 15? Also is it necessary for me to read only a single poem in a recording or can I read a few by different poets in one go? Thanks. I don't think that Stein poem is in the public domain. Do you have a text for it? It w...

It's been a long time since I uploaded to Librivox, and would happy for any criticism possible before I start a longer reading.

I'd like to do The fifteenth man. The story of a rugby match by Richard Marsh, from https://archive.org/details/seenandunseen00marsgoog .

It may be a bit large--it definitely is for me--but may I suggest An Italian Legend of the Fifteenth Century, https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=umn.31951001624653m&view=1up&seq=281

I've been told that LibriVox doesn't accept Wikisource. Note that it's backed by https://archive.org/details/tarasbulbataleof00gogouoft Google scans at the Internet Archive, and the text can be compared word for word with the scans at https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Index:Taras_Bulba._A_Tale_of_the_C...

The Hathi record says it's full view, and if you click on it it says it's "Public Domain in the United States". Almost certainly one of many, many things that didn't get renewed.

The publication date listed on the Archive link listed in the first post of this thread is 1927 suggesting it is not PD. On closer inspection of the title page of the Archive copy I see a copywrite date of 2016! :shock: According to Wikipedia, Scott Moncrieff completed the translation of the first ...

https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=njp.32101037606108 is an 1832 version.

The first issue of Weird Tales (1923) has "The House of Death", by Fannie Georgia Stroup. It's about 3000 words, so it should go in one of the Short Story reads, or a read of the entire issue. I don't do much reading, and for this work, a work by a female author with female characters, I think it pr...

'The Dragon-Fly' by Edna St. Vincent Millay Text: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Dragon-Fly_%28Millay%29 (from https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=coo.31924057673380;view=1up;seq=127 ) Duration: 1:01.15 MP3: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/spc167-dragonfly_des_128kb.mp3 A 1922 poem o...

According to Alice in a world of wonderlands , there was a 1914-15 abridged edition published in the weekly Los Muchachos , translated by Anonymous. That should be good in the US and world-wide. The 1927 Barcelona edition, Alicia en el pais de las maravillas was translated by Juan Gutiérrez Gili, wh...

This doesn't appear to be in the catalogue. PD in the USA it says and often mentioned side by side with The Sins of the Cities of the Plain. Part attributed to Oscar Wilde. Nobody knows for sure. https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Teleny,_or_The_Reverse_of_the_Medal I'm sure this one has been mentioned...

I can take it.
