    It's selected passages from the Introduction.
    • ○ "I still..." to "...alot" (p. xi), missing out the paragraph between "...used to nightmares" and "I'm so tired".
      ○ "As I discovered..." to "...took it home" (pp. xvii-xviii), missing out a sizeable chunk between "...nothing at all" and "I think now if someone...".
      ○ And finally "This much I'm certain of..." to "...nightmares will begin" (pp. xxii-xxiii), missing out a short section between "...for hours" and "It will get so bad...".
    The second reading is from the end of Chapter II (pp. 17-18).

    These are actually the first two tracks off The Five and a Half Minute Hallway.

    The others are:
    The Intrusion: 24, 28
    Mad Woman: 150
    Whalestoe Letter (Part 1): 592-593
    Whalestoe Letter (Part 2): 624, 619, 623
    The Five and a Half Minute Hallway: (Poe: "I live at the end of a five and a half minute hallway, but as far as I can see you are still miles from me in your doorway.")

    While I'm at it, here are the page references for Exploration #4:
    That Place: ??, 558
    Could Have Gone Mad: 24
    Enter the Beast: 25-27
    Control: (Poe: "Don't you mess with me.")
    Echo | Lemon Meringue: 50, ??, 574, 564
    Exploration A | Amazed: 56-57, 63-64
    Just Another Drive | Hey Pretty: 88-89
    The Panther: 559-600
    Wild: 600, (Poe: "Tell me what you've come for... I go wild... like a hunter...")
    Exit the Man: 122-125
    Terrible Thought: 125, 19, 623, ??, 558, ??, 574, 314, xi, 32, 268, 619, xi, 600, 24, 619, 550(??)
    Footnotes 301 & 302 | Haunted: 337, (Poe: "And I'm haunted, by the lives that I have loved, and actions I have hated. I’m haunted, by the lives that wove the web inside my haunted head."), 337-338.

    "??" refer to samples of TZD's voice, I think:
    • "Anyway... I miss you a lot old man."
      "This is an open book. I'm not lecturing; I'm sharing with you some of my reflections."
      "Love you most, bye."(which is scribbled near the bottom of p. 550.)
    "19" refers to The Whalestoe Letters (Nov. 6, 1984) — even though it's actually from the song by Poe.

    In addition there's also the New York Times reading.
