It amazes me how well Zola matches the narrative--the story of the characters--with the critique of the Second Empire itself.

2 PL notes for Section 6:

There are roughly 13 seconds of silence at the beginning of the recording. Could you cut that down to between .5-1 second of silence?
30:39 stumble on "the"

Wow! A lot happened in that section!

Only one PL note: @8:58 repeat "her"

Seven, back to you! Speaking of "formidable", that was fast!

Oops! I just got done with Section 8 (pre-editing), and I underestimated; it is 1:19:00! Is that allowable, or do I have to cut off part and put it at the end of 7?

79 minutes is the limit so, just to be safe and not cut it so close, I would take the first sentence or paragraph and put it at the end of section 7. I'll PL the end again while Spot PLing

Edit: I meant the first sentence or paragraph. Fixed the above sentence.

I added on the next paragraph to Section 7

Eight is ready.

Our text is the Henry Vizitelly translation. I'm told this is a prettified, "expurgated" version of EA Vizitelly' s original translation. I have tried many times, here and in other Zola texts, to be able to use another version, but only the Gutenberg works. I may go browse in the French.

Section 8 has two PL notes:
33:15 repeat "rendering homage"
50:11 stumble on "familiarities"

A proper 8, back to you

Section 10, ready for PL

Oops, Section 9, I mean. I've correct that slip.
