This isn't a "section uploaded" post, but I thought I'd share a bit of "good news - bad news" with you.

In reverse order: The bad news is that Ch. 12 is definitely not comfortably short. OK, I can deal. The GOOD news is... (maybe "good" is a huge stretch) in this chapter he talks about, among many other things, major epidemics. This was written a few years after the 1918 flu pandemic, so it must have been on his mind and certainly fits the general subject of the novel.

Can't wait to see whether, and if so how, it develops in the many chapters to come. Just thought I'd share.

I have been listening to what you have recorded so far, and I thought that our main character has a job which is very coincidently to our lives today. Oh, how history, and art, repeats itself!

Take your time with the longer sections, that is the only way to get through them.
