Love Poems, by F. W. Harvey (1888 - 1957)

This project is now complete. All audio files can be found on our catalog page here:

https://librivox.org/love-poems-by-f-w-harvey/


Volunteers outside the USA: F. W. Harvey died in 1957. This person's work may still be protected by copyright in countries where copyright duration is determined by the author's death date. In Europe this is 70 years; in Canada it is 50 years; and in Australia it is 70 years for authors who died after 1955.
F. W. Harvey was an English poet, broadcaster and solicitor. These poems, taken from his 1921 collection Farewell, embody his love of nature, his native Gloucestershire and his beloved. (Summary by Newgatenovelist)

Prooflistening level: Standard
Prospective PLs, please see the Guide for Proof-listeners.

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Pnagami has most kindly agreed to be DPL.

The sections are ready to be uploaded. I've been trying to get the best sound quality from my new setup but wanted to avoid it sounding like I'm changing horses midstream in a current solo!

Thank you very much, Jo!

Pam, everything is, or should be, in the MW. The poems begin on page 33. No hurry, as Harvey's been waiting more than 100 years now to be recorded and can wait a wee bit longer!
