As someone who loves to read translations, I thought this book would be a good fit for me. I assumed it would be about her reading experience as she read a book from every country in the world. As it turns out, you must go to her online blog to get that feedback. This book was far more academic. It dealt with the ins and outs of translations and publishing in other countries, the difficulties of finding material, etc, etc. Some of the chapters were interesting but overall, it read more like an essay. Not awful, but fairly dry.
