What's your reading list look like at present?

@RemovedUsername8862 Currently reading Don Quixote in its original Spanish

@primavera Cervantes is a classic for good reason! I'm impressed that you're reading the original, though - is the linguistic drift difficult?

primavera · 26-30, F

@RemovedUsername8862 It is especially as it's not my native language and I've don't think I've read a full novel in Spanish before 😂

@primavera That does sound like a challenge! After you complete that, no doubt mammoth, project, what's next?

@primavera Muy bueno! XD All I know is that the English translation by Edith Grossman (first published in 2003) is still considered the gold standard. It is truly outstanding.
