Is Das Schicksal translated into English, and how short is it? I am looking for a work in German 60-70 pages that would be suitable for a bilingual publication--i.e., 120-140 pages (but 140-200 is also possible). Xenos Books, with which I am associated, does such publications, but so far has only Spanish-English and Italian-English; it needs a German-English, and Salomon's book sounds interesting. Jünger's works are out, because I anticipate problems with his agent, his publisher, etc. Xenos is very small. Click the link above for Xenos Books. GK
