Should you have the means...

[magicicada]

I am not sure that I could pronounce Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio the best author in the world, but he is certainly Nobel-worthy. My introduction to his writing was in several lyrical passages which were used in a French composition course. I had no idea that so little of his works had been translated.

So, if you can read French - go for it. If you can't um... study up or start begging publishers to produce translations.

p.s. If they need a good translator, I might know one ;).
