:) Thanks Tricia—I'll start on 3 (oops!—I called #2 3 in my post—looks like it was labeled properly, though) today.

Yes, I double checked the file name and the audio to make sure it was chapter 2. 8-)

Thanks! PL to come later today.

I haven't heard from the claimant on section 5. Want to take that one and finish this one off?

Section 3:

20:43-29:48 - deep toned noise
21:12-21:22 - same
21:29-21:31 - same
These portions might need re-recording. :?

22:57 - noises right after "for the next 3 months" - should be easy to cut out

Hi Tricia—Here's section three with corrections:

file length: 49:03.5
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/enormousroom_03_cummings_128kb.mp3

I have five recorded, but I think it needs a lot of work still...

I was wondering how the intro material should be handled—"chapter four continued"(?)

"Chapter 4, part 2" works at the very beginning of the intro, and "Chapter 4, Le Nouveau, part 2" after the LibriVox disclaimer. Thanks for asking!

I'll check the edited file shortly.

Hi Tricia—Here's section 5 for PL.

file length: 50:03
https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/enormousroom_05_cummings_128kb.mp3

When searching for info on how to pronounce Norton-Harjes, I came across this fascinating piece of film on youtube, which i thought would interest you and the other readers:

It is tempting to speculate that one of the volunteers shown signing up might be Cummings himself!
