Thank you so much reviewing our little How Much Land Does a Man Need. And that picture of Tolstoy at 20 - wow!

I liked the story, and I'm sure it's going to be even better with an "updated" translation.<br /><br />Btw, I bought the Eudora Welty biography at Booksale. If I see another copy, I'll let you know. :)Darlyn (Your Move, Dickens)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00979296421309409564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023956444265128672.post-16237604655514587102011-02-05T07:32:15.252+08:002011-02-05T07:32:15.252+08:00"When I read the mission statement of Calypso..."When I read the mission statement of Calypso Publishing I was reminded somehow of Virginia and Leonard Woolf working at Hogarth Press, producing books notable not only for their content but books that are works of art themselves."<br /><br />This has really made my day. It's good to see there are publishing houses still ike this in operation. <br /><br />When it comes to translations, I'm of the group that are particularly sensitive to them. A translation can either put you off or make you a fan of an author. Glad to hear this one was of the good quality.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023956444265128672.post-65383372067565524432011-02-05T07:30:50.215+08:002011-02-05T07:30:50.215+08:00Mel, Sorry you won't make it out to the launc...Mel, Sorry you won't make it out to the launch, but your kind words are much appreciate.
