 I tried out text to speech with the EPUB of "Ancient Manners" by Pierre
 Louys, which is one I am proofing by hand.  I asked it to speak the first
 page of the first chapter.  It speaks the title of the chapter, then part
 of the first sentence, then goes back to the title, then the first
 sentence, and so on.  It doesn't go quite back to the beginning.  You
 really have to try it to understand what it is doing.

 The book I used may be downloaded here:

 It seems to have the same exact problem with any page in the book.

 Plain text text to speech works fine.  Only EPUB seems to have the
 problem.
