You'll surely be able to read the original? Your English is certainly up to it.

You think so? To me it's very difficult to read novels in English. There are many idioms and words hard to understand. Anyway, what I did for the Fleming novels I read (the ones I've got in English and Spanish) is to compare both editions to see what's missing in the Spanish one (I.e. "The Property Of A Lady" misses many paragraphs in the Albon Colombian edition).

Your writing is excellent, wouldn't have guessed that you have any trouble at all!

That's also interesting about The Property of a Lady. I wonder how many other novels suffer the same fate...
