It's the birthday ...
of Joseph Conrad, born Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski on December 3, 1857 in Polish Ukraine, then part of the Russian Empire.
Some thirty-six of Conrad's works are available for free at Project Guttenberg, many as audio files as well as texts.
(Perhaps I'd someday finish Nostromo if I were listening to it ...)
Update: The complete works are available as free eBooks at the University of Adelaide's eBook site.
