Thanks. I guess I should have done that . Following the link, and reading the reviews has given me pause, as one reviewer said this:
Quote:
KINDLE: I have checked back repeatedly for Don Camillo on Kindle. Same art work but a *different* translator from my "hardback" Don Camillo book. This translation is DREADFUL - it has none of the grace & charm of the original.
Ghastly.
Now I don't always believe a single review, particularly when the overwhelming reviews are 5 star, but I do wonder if there might be a grain of truth in this one, which would push me towards reading older paper versions.
