My late father did a number of recordings for LibriVox.

In fact in the last conversation I had with him, he said to tell the people on the LibriVox forums "Cheerio" from him, so he had certainly enjoyed being part of that community.

After he died and I posted his farewell message there, it was quite emotional reading through the tributes to him and his skill as a storyteller. Later still I found a dozen or so "fan mail" letters - so he knew he was appreciated.

I'll always be grateful to LibriVox for giving him an avenue to exercise a talent that wouldn't otherwise have been public.

See this is why I love these sort of projects. Yes as a casual person just reading the nerd news it’s a useful resource

But then you go on to realise it’s a resource that people have poured themselves into. I love it

Your father's reading of of Oedipus Rex is superb.

Please accept my thanks.

I thank you on his behalf. Most of his fan mail was for his reading of The Prisoner of Zenda, so perhaps try that if you haven't already and the genre is to your taste?
