Hi Heather:
I'm new to the list as well. I'm particularly interested in Francophone sf
(my husband speaks French and my kids are bilingual, but prefer to read in
French so far). Anyway, I would like to know what the six stories you
examined are, if you don't mind. Also, did you read them in French or in an
English translation and if you read them in translation, do you know who the
translators are (I'm a translator so I'm interested in anything to do with
translating sf). Thanks for any info.
