I'm not sure if it's a sin to listen before publication on legamus, but I sampled some of your story. Your voice is more beautiful than ever; up there with Dame Janet Baker in the quiet passages of Mahler songs.

Re: Eng[Solo] Within a Budding Grove by Proust - hok
Hi
Section 20 is PL OK except for an unedited repeat of the name at 22:53 - the French text has this as "M. Molé", although my Kindle download had left off the accent in the translation.
Best regards
Martin

Re: Eng[Solo] Within a Budding Grove by Proust - hok
Hi Section 19 is all PL OK, except for a pronunciation detail, which you have asked me to note where appropriate. You have started in this section to award Mme de Villeparisis an extra syllable (a final i ). Like Charlus and other quasi-Latin or Italianate old family names (e.g. de Médici s ), it's ...

Hi
Uploading Section 12 (STRIKE-PAY). My word, that was difficult. Interesting to hear again the East Midland "Sorry" - the dialect survival of the Shakespearean "Sirrah."

Re: Eng[Solo] Within a Budding Grove by Proust - hok
Hi
Now marked PL OK.
The only name which has made me positively wince so far was a couple of sections back when you took the final s from the Baron de Charlus. Definitely a hissing sound is called for when he returns - Sharr-L/i ɡʁɛk/ SS.

Hi There are 3 unedited repeats in Section 18: @36:01 The sentence: "But this time she must have reckoned ... as though to a grown-up person." Repeated in entirety from 36:21. @41:58 "Oh well, you know ... condescension." Repeated to correct final word quoted. @43:20 from "Y...

Hi Kristin The dialogue is mostly in the dialect of the Nottinghamshire-Derbyshire border. I lived in that area in the 1970s. Please take a listen to this YouTube video of local people reading from a text by an author from D H Lawrence's own home village. I hope this gives you some useful guidance w...

Re: Eng[Solo] Within a Budding Grove by Proust - hok
Two edits are needed -
At 1:31 you read "crusts" for "crests";
and at 7:06 you began the sentence from "At Combray..." and then restarted it at 7:16 - so need to remove the aborted passage 7:06 through to 7:16.
Otherwise fine.

Re: Eng[Solo] Within a Budding Grove by Proust - hok
Excellently done. I love the Balbec parts. I was a lad growing up in Llandudno when I first read Proust and their respective Grand Hotels coalesced in my imagination.

Re: Eng[Solo] Within a Budding Grove by Proust - hok
Hi Section 15 PL OK. Some marvellous writing in this. Sometimes I feel: "I know exactly what he is feeling there..." - but then I wonder if I would know how to "feel" it if Proust had not taught me how to feel in the course of my earlier readings of the novel. Best regards Martin

Hi
The English translation preserves the Proustian headings (Place-Names: The Name, etc) as the main titles of the work's constituent parts, so I agree that these are the real divisions.

Hi
All's PL OK. I could really appreciate from your reading the sadness and self-delusion in Marcel's rejection of Gilberte.
