Thanks, Erin. Yes, this book does cover some unusual topics.

I recorded section 22, which I had been putting off because it's a long chapter. However, I found it was too long for one section and had to split it. This meant that the subsequent sections had to be renumbered. Sorry if you had already ...

I did find Douglas's first book on Wilde interesting (although it was ghost-written, so not technically in his own voice). So I look forward to reading his autobiography.

Here are some more sections for PL.

Whoops!

Yes, I will probably launch it within a week or so of finishing. I know it's quite quiet round here at the moment and I don't want to assume you would be up for PLing it, but of course if you have the time and the inclination that would be great.

Thanks! Yes, I've got a copy of Lord Alfred Douglas's autobiography, which is yet to enter PD in the US.

No worries, Erin, thanks for letting me know. It's working out for me to go at a pace of 2 or 3 sections per week, so I will try to stick to that.

Hi all, and happy new year!

As of today the works of George Orwell are PD in Europe. They had already been PD in Canada and Australia, hence those countries’ versions of Gutenberg have online texts of Orwell’s works that we in Europe can now access.

I’m not sure about the Legamus policy on this ...

Thanks! It's been OK here most of the time, although of course it's mayhem now!

All the best for the new year.

No problem. I have neglected this project, as others took over my attentions. I do intend to continue.

Hi Erin,

I am just checking in to let you know that I am moving house next week: I had hoped to get some more recording done this past month, but I've been a bit busy. I will get back into it in March.

Thanks, Viktor!

They both look great. I can't remember where I found the book text. I must have downloaded it about 5 years ago when I was looking for all Sherard's books. It's not on Archive.org or Hathi Trust. I am stumped!
