ReviewsThe translation is great stuff. It is accurate and fluent, but it is much more than that. It has been carried off with wit, inventiveness, sensitivity and panache. I find it impossible to think of it being better done, "The translation is great stuff. It is accurate and fluent, but it is much more than that.
