An impressive looking book George.

I would be particularly interested in reading the section 'The Art of Poetry Translation'.  From the huge diversity of English renditions of the SAME poem, I'm guessing it is no easy task to provide both literal translation AND verse that 'flows' well.  It really is an art in itself, for which considerable talent is needed.
