I’m pretty new to recording- just completed a couple of small DR parts. Could I claim chapter 2 please? If it goes well I’ll hope to do more …

Thanks,

Cynthia

Thanks, I’ll check all the settings and make a start next week. Is it ok to listen to a bit of chapter 1 to check name pronunciations?

Pronunciations are not going to be consistent in a collaborative project so just pronounce the best you can. There are lots of sites online to check pronunciation of foreign words.
Hope this helps,
Christine

Here is Chapter XX:

Duration: 26 minutes

There's an odd instance of phrasing at 12:07, a repetition of the word "suggested." I read the line as it appears in the Project Gutenberg text but wanted to get your view.

Thanks!

Chapter 20 is PL ok. The two "suggested" is not an error. The Baron's mind suggested to the Baron the term "angelic wife" and then the Baron orally "suggested" to Menzies-Legh that term. Part of the von Arnim humor.
