In other news, I just finished When Jackals Storm The Walls, and while I don’t find myself frothing to grab up each next volume (they’re a daunting commitment at 20+ hours each!) this epic middle-east-coded fantasy is VERY compelling!! @KateReadingVO is 🤌🏽

We are asked about Wilson's translations often.

We do not recommend them.

Here are few reasons why:
"Oh, you've never read The Odyssey???"

Your timing is perfect. Emily Wilson's translation is the best one in literally ages, has that sweet iambic pentameter to give it a "bouncy" feel, & makes dudebros cry that the classic has "gone woke". 😁

Parents, take your kids to all those birthday parties. Here's why.

Once upon a time, a million years ago, in a San Fernando Valley far, far away, my mother had a birthday party and nobody showed. Not a single kid.

With school starting, I wanted to share the story.

This would be theft. If it’s a @sagaftra narrator, our union has protections in place, so don’t do it. Librivox narrators are fair game, public domain, clone away!

LibriVox readers: did you know your voices were used to train AI speech for Microsoft’s Vall-E, which used Meta’s audio library Librilight, and drew from Librivox narration? 60k hours of narration from 7k readers. Did anyone ask for your permission?
