Has anyone heard anymore about his book which was being translated from German to English. Also if it is published who is the dealer most likely to stock it?

Thanks

Yes, me Smile It was not being translated, it is still. When I know more about a more reliable time frame I will let know everybody here. It is out of my hands, but I understand well and accept that it is a hell of a work as it will contain all of my previous (7) German books... Jan

Seems like, guys, it would be easier/quicker - if we all just learn German [?]

Jan, Thank you for your swift reply, as you can see, you will have a a lot of customers when it is ready for sale. Maybe double the print run you had already intended!

This should be a great book. I recently became a big fan of Jan's work. His work on Jack London's Almost Real Prediction is sensational.

Rumor has it, the Swahili version was just released.
The Khoisan "clicking language" is supposedly slated for the next translation.
This information may be slightly incorrect, so I'll wait for Jan to clarify further Smile

It is still in translation, but out of my hands... but the good news might be that now we drive bidirectional - producing one entire book in German (including all) and one in English... it makes the translation partly easier... And I promise you that you have not to wait until I am retired Smile... Jan

Any update on the translation to English being complete?

Thanks

I have my money set aside. But as I have lived 39 years without this book, I can live until it is ready Smile
