Duane, I haven't been following this thread very closely, but on't worry about it your scan. If you can get the scan done and nobody else wants to or can't validate the book I'll do it at some point. I'll add it to my list but will check before I get to it to be sure no one else is doing it or has done it--assuming I can get the book, and I gather it is relatively new so I should be able to. Cloud Atlas fans -- I'm more than halfway through now, but this fifth story is h***. I suggest you listen to it if you can. There are so many made-up words and missing consonants and dialect -- I can't imagine what braille will do with it, since I gather Braille is a sort of shorthand and not letter-by-letter. The only way I can read it is running along the lines quickly as if I were reading it out loud. It's also oneof the longest chapters, I think because it it the apex -- from this point we start finishing the other stories going from this point back to the beginning. I'll be really interested to know from some of you how you liked the book when you finish reading it.
