Well, John,
Great reading overall.
However, one kind of major error and three kind of minor ones. I will start with the big one. You uploaded chapter 18 as chapter 19 (see above).
Here are the other ones:
2:19
suffice it to say that in their frenzied revolt against the uncongeniality of their surroundings, You missed the word
“in”.
15:08
Look at all that we have already achieved: You missed the word
“already”.
15:58
his deep love for self-isolation, You said
'of'. It is a subtle difference. I will leave it up to you.
I will put Chapter 18 as
See PL Notes so Stav is aware you did it, but be sure to change name when you re-upload it.

Gary,
Good job on your editing. It is now
PLOK
One thing, though. When you cut down on the volume, you went down almost 6dB to 86.9. That is on the very low range of LV standards (86-92, goal 89) but just fine. Something, maybe, to work on in future.

Gary,
You have done a lot of work recently. Thanks for the efforts.
A couple of comments.
14:58:
when doubled up on the back seat of a victoria When you re-read that sentence, you forgot the word
seat. I really debated, but it does really make the sentence clearer. They are on the back seat not the back of the vehicle.
Also, this one is a little on the low side. It is down to 86.5, about 6 lower than before. Since you are going to be in it anyway, you might see what you can do. Have you had the chance to download MP3Gain
(
http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/) or Checker (
https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Checker) yet? They are two very useful additions to a(n) LV reader's quiver.
Thanks,
Wayne

Gary,
Very well done. Your correction is completely seamless. Chapter 5 is
PLOK
The correction on the volume was well within LV range, but was still on the low end of it at 87.1. Have you downloaded MP3Gain (mp3gain.sourceforge.net)? This can really help you get it close to 89.
Keep up the good work and I am looking forward to the rest of your sections.
