Мария Змийчарова продължава темата за "дрехите на превода", подхваната от мен тук tomosekla.com/za-novite-prev… и това много ме радва. Ако някой друг иска да се включи, да заповяда, Мостът може и да се клати, но място има :)

one of the greatest novels of all time. one of the most terrifyingly beautiful worlds in the universe.
