Reseña del libro "The Last of the Mohicans: The Grey Translation (en Inglés)"
“Snappier and more readable … A triumph … Highly recommended.” —SERIES ACCLAIM The classic novel now in a modern English translation James Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans was the “first great American novel” (The Daily Gazette). It tells the story of war, love, friendship, and survival that inspired an Oscar®-winning film. This new edition features a modern English translation of the story by editor Aldwin Grey. Retold with finesse and rigor, Grey’s translations enable readers to enjoy the classics in a fresh, clear voice. They can also be used as study guides or references alongside the original works. IT IS 1757 and England and France are fighting for the claim of the New World. When the French attack the British fort at Lake George, a white scout, Hawkeye, and his two Mohican companions, Chingachgook and Uncas, become entwined in a battle to save the daughters of Commander Munro. Following the waterways and shadowed tracks of the Appalachian forests, the woodsmen set forth on a journey—sometimes brutal and sometimes comical—into a territory where lives are paid for with blood and scalps. Original “What art thou?” “A woman. One of a hated race, if thou wilt—a Yengee. But one who has never harmed thee, and who cannot harm thy people, if she would; who asks for succour.” The Grey Translation Who are you? he said. A woman of a hated race. A Yengee. But one who has never harmed you and would never harm your people. I ask for help. “[Cooper] didn’t bring back the past, he imagined it, dreamed it, set down a vision of America that became real for millions.” —The Associated Press
