You read my mind once again, Alejandro! Translation is not exactly what I expected when I was at University, although I am reasonably satisfied with my daily work.
I will send this cartoon to one of my best friends, who is a literary translator. She's totally in love with the books she translated and one the happiest persons I know, even if she earns barely enough to pay the bills!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeleteTrue.
After translating a book, it's hard to go on translating "boring stuff".
Great! I have linked to your site. Hope that's OK with you!
