Books in Translation

I looked around a little and found several lists of books in translation. There is huge variety. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is a translation. Talk about plot....  The first list is probably more of what Caroline had in mind. The last is a lot of older works.

Thanks Jane. another idea is to review the lists of the best books of the year and see which ones are translations. This is a good time of year for these "best of" lists.
