Here's a literary biography of #Thoreau written in French originally. This book is for you if you like heightened writing that flows from occasional use of present tense "you"...

I record the books I've submitted to Project Gutenberg here, mostly in case someone would let me know if they found the transcriptions useful. (I realize the odds are low, believe me.) I am probably the only "solo" submitter of non-fiction, which is weird (but so is much else)—people do love their genre fiction. I also try to take advantage of the newest public domain year(s), which are paradoxically not really a point of interest in the PGDP community. Mail is open.

Another I transcribed. #EdmundWilson's works barely start in the public domain period. He wrote this novel before turning to criticism.
