PL of sections 12-14 is okay.

I wonder where this story is headed.

You're just the kind of reader Joseph Conrad would have wanted! So, what odds are you prepared to give me on a happy ending???

PL of section 15 is fine.

I don’t remember many happy endings in Conrad’s books.

Agreed. Though, to be fair, he does certainly leave a few warning signs along the path. I wonder if Mrs Schomberg will ever see happier days?

I have uploaded section 16: https://librivox.org/uploads/craigdav1/victory_16_conrad_128kb.mp3 (31:39)...

... in which our understanding of the term "desperado" is considerably enlarged.

Well the girl saw a glimmer of independence in Mrs Schumberg so perhaps a surprise will be in store.

PL of section 16 is fine.

Agreed. But we're in a sad way when we're pinning all our hopes on Mrs Schomberg!

PL of section 17 is okay.

I am not satisfied with my reading of Schomberg and Ricardo to date. I am therefore going to re-read the following sections: 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17.

I agree! Staying tuned for new recordings.

PL of sections 4 and 5 is even better than before.
