Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

Maybe you could look over the summary and keywords list in the First Post and suggest what else seems significant?

The summary is great Michele. I can't think of any oher keywords - betrayel maybe?

Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

Well that was an abrupt ending! I know Conachur is a ..... but you really sounded like you enjoyed reading him :D A few notes on section 19 2.46 Certainly - you say certainty 8.20 There is a repeat “do you not ..” 16.20 "We have had a merry night" - You say minute 18.15 "And the openi...

Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

17 is re-upped with 2 corrections. Weird, as I remember recording "Are we all ready", then editing it to say "Are we ready all". I must have erased it instead. Ah well, this is the way PLers earn their stripes. I've been listening with "fresh ears" to the whole book, a...

Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

That was intense! Poor Iollan and I was disappointed by Buinne! Well read Michele. Nearing the end now. Just 2 notes on section 17 - 1.54, the pronounciation of "scaling" Is it not as in scaling a wall? And at 6.26 the line “Are we ready all?” said Naoise. “Then let us arrange this sally.”...

Section 14 - the tension is mounting!! Just a small pronounciation correction at 8.30. Saileach is pronounced Sal-loch. Check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dw_OnYuAoKc&t=15s

Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

Section 13 is uploaded. Sometimes men just will not listen to the warnings! AAARRRGGG. I fear a train wreck is coming. I had to guess at several names: Loch Eitche, ochone, Buinne, Dun Daelgan, Ard Saileach. Please cite times where I err in pronunciation. Hi Michele - mostly fine just Ochone at 1.1...

Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

Section 12 is uploaded. https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/deirdre_12_stephens_128kb.mp3 Geasa? I sense there's a plot afoot, with Conachur at its center. Was not sure how to pronounce Annte and Conal. Section 12 is PL OK - yes Conachur is up to no good unless it's the drink talking. Th...

Re: Deirdre, by James Stephens -jo

Section 9 is PL OK - Lavarcham's advice is brilliantly written. Maybe she should marry the king!!

Regarding Fedelm, her mother doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere. Check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conchobar_mac_Nessa
