How well would you say, in your own informed opinion, Ancient Greek, arguably Attic Greek, translate into English? I understand that this is a very difficult answer, but I'm just poking as I believed it didn't all that well, but a person I ran into believed that it translates very well, so now I'm very curious to know at the very least a semblance of the relation.

If she doesn't exist then how do explain this:

>"Rachel Olan's harrowing 1999 book "The Open Window" (ISBN 9781840234692), comes along with the wave of the new cyber-punk-esque post-modern masterpieces like William Gibson's "The Neuromancer" and Neil Stephenson's "Cryptonomicon". Olan uniquely blends vast threads of not only the growing cyberculture philosophical outlook, but looks into the feminine experience of dissembodied presence as well as the oedipal primal conflict against civil society. Just like in Thomas Pynchon's "V", the heroine becomes a vessel for the writters exploration of the new identities forming in the wake of the explosion of new cultural paradigm shift and looks into both the past and future for a generations growing fears over sexuality and the presence of cyberspace."
