Comment:

 See proposed patch.
 I would go for keeping it simple and, after some investigation, I don't
 think this group of links should have any special semantic or ARIA role,
 it's not a "main" navigation. Any thoughts and different opinions are
 welcome.

 I would ask the accessibility team's feedback for a better wording for
 "Pages:".
 Please notice this "title" could also be hidden for screen readers and a
 better "screen-reader-text" used instead.

 Tested with Firefox and NVDA, now it reads out loud (e.g. on the first
 page):

 > Pages: (pause)
 > Page 1 (pause)
 > link Page 2 (pause)
 > link Page 3

 P.S.
 Attached also an alternate version that make screen readers read out:
 > *Current* Page 1
 but the markup ends up being a bit inelegant.
