    Great reading and impersonification, I like it. But why did you make a few adjustments to the original? I mean about the Sam character. If you like Hemingway, and I see you really do, then how you decided to make the adjustments to the author's text and to the wording of a character? Then, how would you be able to make your audiobook from "The 39 Steps" by John Buchan, considered to be one of the British classics, and it is. Would you have to read only two sentences? (It's a novella and somewhat longer then "The Killers", but not in any way less intersting and exciting.) Why make adjustments according to your point of view? Again, you are dealing with original text of the great author and dealing with a wording of a fictional characters whom Hemingway wrote out as it is. What is in this with you? You love great literature, but do you think you make it great? Or the other way round? Some people don't really understand what the great literature is. It's obviously not you. But do you think Hemingway would have loved it, if he had listen to it?

      Honestly, Michael, I didn’t change the text at all - certainly not intentionally. Did I have a different version or was I just clumsy and error prone? I’ve no idea but I certainly didn’t intend to mess with Hemingway. Don’t be too cross. Maybe I’ll see if I can read John Buchan correctly

      Thank you, Dr Hibb. You are the best impersonificator and reader, with out doubt. Probably, the You Tube wouldn't have give you to use the "N" word of the original.
