Top Ten Books Not Originally Written In English
Tales from foreign lands in foreign tongues are so often eye-opening. It's a new way of looking at life, it's a view of another culture, and it brings a freshness to literature. These are the best foreign language books that have been translated into English. There are a couple of well-known classics, as well as some less-familiar reads that we heartily recommend you take a chance on. Whilst we're at it, let's take a moment to applaud the translators, whose work is so often taken for granted - without them, even the best foreign authors wouldn't make it to these shores. Why not tell us about your favourite foreign language books?
