the best parts of the novel are when he focuses on the #socialissues, and especially the treatment of workers in these circumstances (with much wealth being created, while famine and other conditions force those without capital to seek work in these new industries)."

"This is especially valuable given the general dearth of Azerbaijani literature in English."

"The obvious must be stated - no translation of Norwid can match the original. It is impossible to climb to such heights as Norwid achieved. However, a translator can forge a path to those peaks. Kraszewski has undoubtedly done this. His translations read just as if walking a safe path."
#Poland

Charles S. Kraszewski’s skillful translation enhances the semantic value of the volume. The English-speaking reader should benefit from his elegant translation."

[…] Both Kraszewski’s translation and introduction are valuable texts.”

Thank you, Richard. Your words gave this book its new voice, its second life. No cover, no matter how striking, could ever capture what you've accomplished between those pages. That's the real art. The rest is just packaging for the truth you've delivered.

The old Dover editions were honest. Plain. True. But a man can admire simplicity while another builds something new. In the end, we're all just trying to keep good words alive. Some with fancy covers, some without. The words inside - that's the real fight worth having.
