Hi Amber,
About the Brief Wondrous life of Oscar Wao - I'm not surprised you're
finding weird words - are you familiar with Spanglish where people
combine Englisha and Spanish words? Like the word "emailamos" - we'll
email... And the word "recycling" in Spanish, which I can't even try to
spell... but my best friend is a Spanglish speaking gal - so if you
still want a sighted volunteer, I'm happy to help out... unless someone
else offered off-line. Let me know, on or off list.
Devorah

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] I could use some sighted assistance on the
following
I could use some sighted assistance if someone wants to validate the
following.
For some of these I have indicated what I need for the books. For
others I just need a sighted person to validate.
* Ruby in the Smoke by Philip Pullman. I think there are a few
hand-written letters I could use help with.
* the Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz. I have optimized
my scan but I am still getting funny-looking words so a sighted
assistant in validating would be great. this won the Pulitzer prize
this year for fiction.
* Crocodile on the Sand bank by Elizabeth Peters. I need a few pages
from this book. It is the first in the Amelia Peabody series.
If you can help with these, please respond either onlist or privately at
amber.wallens@xxxxxxxxx
Thanks!
Amber
