Description:'Without translation, we would be living in provinces bordering on silence.' George Steiner It is impossible to overstate the influence world literatures have had in defining each other.

If the authors include Nobel Prize winners, some of the translators are equally famous - here, Saul Bellow translates Issac Beshevis Singer, D. H. Lawrence and Edith Wharton translate classic Italian short stories, and Victoria Hislop has taken her first venture into translation with the only short story written by Constantine P. Cavafy.This exciting, original and brilliantly varied collection of stories takes the reader literally on a journey, exploring the best short stories the globe has to offer.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
