Thanks for that LibriVox link, Hamlet. LibriVox is a treasure, and the folks who work there behind the scenes are performing a very welcome service.

For those who would like a mobi version of Lucretius' masterpiece to read alongside of or before The Swerve, you can find it in our Patricia Clark Memorial Library, having been uploaded by the late, great Patricia herself.

I'll do a conversion to ePub later today and upload that also.
