Dr. Zhivago revisited

The other morning I listened to a recorded version of Boris Pasternak's DR ZHIVAGO on my laptop while I worked on the laundry. It is a CD that I checked out from the library. There is also a Large Type copy in transit from another branch that will be available for checkout soon.  I plan to have it on my nightstand for bedtime reading for the next few weeks.  That way I can go back and double check passages that I have heard online, or pick up where I left off before sleep overtakes me.  Actually, the recorded version is helping keep that cast of thousands with the complex Russian names from getting so scrambled.  I like this!  I wonder what Pasternak would think.
