how to hear the last chapters

[patty]

Hi ! Is there (a simple) way for me to hear the last chapter of my book? "An American Tragedy" I was able to download a nd hear the whole book except the last chapter? I don't know how to download oit onto iTunes or those other unfamiliar sites ? THANK YOU !

Volume 1 or volume 2?

Both of the volumes, the last chapter works for me.

Easiest way to listen is to click on either the > arrow by the file number or the chapter title. It should play directly from your web browser.

Completed LibriVox books are stored at archive.org. You download or listen there. The An American Tragedy books are at:
https://archive.org/details/americantragedy_vol1_2106_librivox
https://archive.org/details/an_american_tragedy_vol2_2108_librivox

If you want to listen to just one chapter click on that one and the audio should start playing in the browser.

as described in the reading aloud, chapter 39 comes up with this link (eventually)
or to read it's 34 (XXXIV) or it's 43 to click on. Very strange arrangement to my eyes...

Oh I get it, so there is like :
section 42 volume 2 book 3 chapter 33

https://archive.org/details/an_american_tragedy_vol2_2108_librivox/americantragedyvolume2_42_dreiser_128kb.mp3

wait, let me type and listen to the link above at the beginning, it says "section 1, [...] volume 2, volume 2, book 2, chapter 39 " at the start.

wow!!! I wonder if the author is dead, I'm going to go find out, I wonder if he died of confusion

so I suspect this might start at the last chapter...

Oh my gosh, this is so messed up, it's as though the links change every few minutes,

I hope that's cause someone is messing with them behind the scenes..

I've tested the links and there worked fine. The sections are correkt and in the intros are the right titles.
You can also listen to the files in the librivox catalog (https://librivox.org/an-american-tragedy-vol2-by-theodore-dreiser/).

So no need for frustration.
Oh, and the author died in 1945.

I'm so glad to hear it works on someone's computer, because it sure as turnips doesn't work on mine, it's horrible. (not the turnips, the webpage, Blaaa blahh blahh)

If the latency of the badly designed webpage is low enough then all the extra rubbish overhead icing on the cake loads up ok, otherwise it's like shoveling concrete into a kitchen sink disposal, everything gets clogged and the audio starts at a random point anywhere in the first 30 seconds. (oh, if it starts at all, took a lot of tries to get that working)

I pulled out the direct links from the webpage source, to get to just the actual audio, without the compost heap on top of it. They match the direct links in the LV catalogue exactly.. anything else and it's curtains to your sanity on slow internet connections or computers...

Glad it's all sorted out. I hope it is patty. Should be on this page now.
