Korean translation of GR is out

[Max Nemtsov]

hear hear
yep, the cover is very very good. Russian publishers weren't that brave, 
they only stuck a rocket between supergirl's thighs ))
as for the tormenting ourselves, there's really some point in this, for 
this is a never-ending quest of fixing something in the translation 
text. it's a process, not a result per se. we're doomed ))
an older acquaintance of mine, the Russian translator of Ulysses, has 
been doing this, I don't know, for the last 30 years or so. a-and there 
are always those adorable readers who just love the game of "pick a word 
and kick the translator for using it." we're having it here now on a 
*slightly* less scale than I had several years ago for re-translating

We English-speaking readers beat ourselves up over not being able to make sense of so much of this book, so the last thing you should do is torment yourself over the quality of your translation.  It's an incredible accomplishment!  And the cover's fantastic.
