Hello TJ
Here is the extra line. I confess I didn't get the context right; hence will await PL notes to make changes

Thank you
Yes, it's important that you say "as well as" (you say "and"), and the emphasis should be on the word "murder" -- M.Ali is enraged, indignant, and a bit sarcastic because he knows very well who this second lady is (Mrs. Moore) and he knows she was not murdered. But the thought of Aziz murdering Mrs. Moore is just as ridiculous to him as the thought of Aziz attempting rape, and that is what Aziz is charged with. It's also important that you emphasize the word "rape" because no one actually says that word (everyone else skirts the issue with words like "assault"). Mahmoud Ali thinks that the accusation of attempted rape is ridiculous, and that the trial is a farce. He thinks that the prosecution smuggled Mrs. Moore secretly out of the country so that she could not testify on Aziz's behalf and thus prove his innocence. Now the prosecution uses Mrs. Moore's supposed testimony against Aziz and Mahmoud Ali snaps in outrage. It's a very powerful scene -- that's why I want it in your voice. :D
I think I get the idea 😃! Will do soon ( I am without a computer right now)
Here is the extra line by Mahmoud Ali

This section was not on your list, but I went ahead and added it to the chanting voices collection, hope that's ok

Hi TJ, I know that you've PLd the sections I posted after this, perhaps this disjointed portion just got lost in the thread.

Would you like to assign me any more minor lines, at the risk of having overlapping voices?

In chapter 24, I've tried to give a few options for the group responses. Include or remove at your pleasure when editing.

Thank you! Mr. Haq and Mr. Ram Chand have a lot of overlap in Chapter 9, which might get confusing if you take both, so I signed you up for Mr. Haq (it's the bigger part).

Hi, well, I have read A Passage to India four times already. It's my fav modern novel. Don't worry about the parts. I know the text and some of the dialogues by heart. Either way, do not deny me Muhammad Latif. I always wanted to say "You spick a lie" :lol:

I see you have actually given me all the parts except Ramchand. Excellent! I will do my best to distinctly voice each character.

Thank you so much, Ehsan!

The lines in Chapter 24 are only gasps of surprise and such. I guess I updated it on my computer, but didn't update it on the Google drive. I just uploaded the updated version. If you feel like gasping a bit, we'd greatly appreciate it! :lol:
