About
Ancient Talk exists to reintroduce people to the Church Fathers and the great Christian writers who followed them, from St Ignatius and St Isaac the Syrian to G.K. Chesterton.
The heart of the project is the YouTube channel: unhurried voice-over readings of their words with quiet video in the background, so you can listen on a walk, a commute, or before sleep.
Every book in the library is in the public domain. Most can be read right here on the site or downloaded as EPUB and plain text, with each edition and source credited (Project Gutenberg, CCEL, Wikisource and the Internet Archive).
