Title: Walter Heger's book
Post by: KeithP on May 04, 2006, 10:10:05 AM
Am I right in thinking that some time ago there was a plan to translate Walter's book into English?

If so, has there been any progress?

Folkie was going to have a stab at it

but she's been in France, studying (or trying to as the student protests have been very disruptive apparently...)

Maybe once her exams are finished.

Jen? How's it going?

Cheers

I have indeed agreed to do this. I am on chapter 4.
This is, however, not due to being too busy with uni. I have tried to get in touch with Walter's publishers in Germany a few times. But so far, nothing has come out of it. I need their ok to translate the book so it can be published in English.

Maybe Walter knows anything else?

I guess we might be able to get it published in time for the 40th Anniversary.... I'd certainly get it done by then. It's only the formalities that need to be sorted out.
