I finished translating the Introduction and the first chapter. The intro was a breeze, but the first chapter was written in a more colloquial style and put my talents to the test. I’m translating from German, and sentence structure in German is sometimes very different from English. In a few places, I found my self thinking: “I know what this means, but I cannot for the life of me find a way to say it without completely changing the style of the story.” I press on.
