(It happens!)<br /><br />But reading the comments here, Claudia just gave me an idea. I tried seeing if there was a Swedish translation of N&S, but there doesn't seem to be one. Elizabeth Gaskell seems to be very thinly translated into Swedish, and I had never heard of her before I moved to England. Seeing as how the book's public domain and all, I'm thinking it would actually not be a bad idea to sit down and translate the darn thing myself, so that more people can read it! :) A bit overly ambitious perhaps but there you go.<br /><br />(Let's just say the "easily over-excited" bit in my blog's tagline isn't just there for the sake of it ... I tend to get carried away far too easily.)Traxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13249884092846934427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-86430222580172784512010-09-16T17:38:07.157+02:002010-09-16T17:38:07.157+02:00I love Elizabeth Gaskell, and when I won Cousin Ph...I love Elizabeth Gaskell, and when I won Cousin Phillis on a Fly High giveaway I almost thought it was a sign of destiny :D<br /><br />I really hope that such a great author will be more appreciated in Italy soon and... if there's any publishing house listening... could you please start translating North and South?Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03392025518428560808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-30501559405419722082010-09-16T00:21:22.139+02:002010-09-16T00:21:22.139+02:00Oh, I'm so pleased to see this -- brilliant id...Oh, I'm so pleased to see this -- brilliant idea!Audrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07511122937603890352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-68782048852523799052010-09-15T05:55:04.743+02:002010-09-15T05:55:04.743+02:00I love Gaskell as well.

The book version North and South ends differently of course from the movie. In a rare case I would say I like the movie with Richard Armitage better. The most romantic ending ever!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-15831215281680687362010-09-14T17:45:43.635+02:002010-09-14T17:45:43.635+02:00So looking forward to your review of N&S--one ...So looking forward to your review of N&S--one of the best mini-series ever.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-74291380865801814842010-09-14T17:14:26.419+02:002010-09-14T17:14:26.419+02:00I've been meaning to review North & South ...I've been meaning to review North & South (book and/or miniseries) for several months now, so this is a good incentive to do so! :) I'm in!Traxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13249884092846934427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-77681341160172811912010-09-14T14:42:04.141+02:002010-09-14T14:42:04.141+02:00I'm in!
