    At 19:36 it skips most of one page particularly page 10 of the paperback version.
    Skips the description of the horse of Call's, Augustus asking about the whereabouts of Newt, Pea Eye's response, Newt throwing rocks at the mare, Augustus commenting on Newt's ability to stand on one foot.

    • @noochinator2
      @noochinator2  4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Yes, you're correct! The missing section reads as follows:
      The mare in question was known around town as the Hell Bitch. Call had bought her in Mexico, from some caballeros who claimed to have killed an Indian to get her---a Comanche, they said. Augustus doubted that part of the story: it was unlikely one Comanche had been riding around by himself in that part of Mexico, and if there had been two Comanches the caballeros wouldn't have lived to do any horse trading. The mare was a dapple gray, with a white muzzle and a white streak down her forehead, too tall to be pure Indian pony and too short-barreled to be pure thoroughbred. Her disposition did suggest some time spent with Indians, but which Indians and how long was anybody's guess. Every man who saw her wanted to buy her, she was that stylish, but Call wouldn't even listen to an offer, though Pea Eye and Newt were both anxious to see her sold. They had to work around her every day and suffered accordingly. She had once kicked Newt all the way into the blacksmith's shop and nearly into the forge. Pea Eye was at least as scared of her as he was of Comanches, which was saying a lot.
      "What's keeping Newt?" Augustus asked.
      "He may have went to sleep down in that well," Pea Eye said.
      Then Augustus saw the boy walking up from the lots, so tired he was barely moving. Pea Eye was half drunk by the time Newt finally made the wagons.
      "'I god, Newt, I'm glad you got here before fall, " Augustus said. "We'd have missed you during the summer."
      "I been throwin' rocks at the mare, " Newt said, with a grin. "Did you see what a hunk she bit out of the Captain?"
      Newt lifted one foot and carefully scarped the mud from the well off the sole of his boot, while Pea Eye continued to wash the dust out of his throat.
      Augustus had always admired the way Newt could stand on one leg while cleaning the other book. "Look at that, Pea," he said. "I bet you can't do that."
      Pea Eye was so used to seeing Newt stand on one leg to clean his boot that he couldn't figure out what it was Gus though he couldnt' do....

    Thanks for this upload. I've been listening to Lee Horsley's narration of the book and after 12 chapters could no longer stand the way he shouts the dialogue of Gus as though the character was deaf. Come to think of it, a couple of lines where other characters comment on his shouting and deafness would have helped me tolerate the narration of what is truly a great feat of literature. Hope Kandinsky does better. Thanks again

    1 hour of voice recording and no plot has yet occurred. Lol, just joking about the pacing. This really is a great novel. I’m in writer’s circles and I get bored about the BS about making everything loud and flashy. The important thing is to convey an experience.
    Corporal taking a walk in the dark conveys more of an experience than having some train blow up just to “keep things spicy”.
    Pacing really is a hard concept for modern-types to grasp...
