If you refuse to read translated literature, you're a pseud and a slave to the public opinion. In your spooked out mind, the AUTHOR holds an inherently greater value than a mere "translator". This, ofcourse, is a very pseudish notion, disregarded by the true lovers of literature, who always judge literary works in separation from their creators.
