Do you know where can I find a book?
Thanks, Marcela

This was published 1918 but to my knowledge has not been translated into other languages. I self-published my German translation last year. Copies can be requested from Sternedale Classics.

Why don't you start at home? Find something you would enjoy translating and see if it has been translated. That way at least it'll be fun for you.
