The Gondolier in Telugu

 I haven't found a home for the Telugu translation of The Gondolier, so here it is: the 54th language for this story.


నా గొండోలా యొక్క నల్లటి ప్రూ కాలువల ప్రశాంతమైన నీటితో సజావుగా కత్తిరించబడింది. సొగసైన క్రాఫ్ట్ చాలా సంవత్సరాలుగా నాకు బాగా పనిచేసింది, నా పూర్వీకుల తరానికి మార్గదర్శకలతో నగరం యొక్క నీటి మార్గాల ద్వారా ప్రయాణీకులను తీసుకువెళ్లింది.

సూర్యుడు పురాతన నగరంపైకి వస్తున్నప్పుడు, సొగసైన ఇసుకరాయి భవనాల మధ్య నీటిని ఇంకీ రిబ్బన్‌గా మారుతాయి. సాయంత్రం చల్లటి గాలిని నేను గాఢంగా పీల్చుకున్నాను.

ఈ అద్భుతమైన కాలువల కంటే అందమైన ప్రదేశం ఏదైనా ఉందా? పడవ దాని లంగరులోకి వెళ్లినప్పుడు నేను అంగారక గ్రహం యొక్క చీకటి ఆకాశంలోకి సంతృప్తిగా చూస్తూ ఆగిపోయాను.

సంపూర్ణం

ధన్యవాదాలు

గరేత్

Book Review: Seven Mercies by Laura Lam and Elizabeth May

Seven Mercies is the sequel to last year’s Seven Devils and the concluding part of this duology. It continues the action-packed, entertaining, fast-paced story of a group of seven rebels who have now taken on the nickname the Seven Devils, based on the empire’s mythology.

The Gondolier in Korean

 Up to now I don't have any stories published in Korean, but my chapter on Waste Management in Science Fiction is included in the book Putting the Science in Fiction, which has been published in Korean. Here's The Gondolier in its 53rd language:


곤돌라

가레스 디 존스


내 곤돌라의 검은 색 배회물은 운하의 잔잔한 물 사이를 부드럽게 자릅니다. 매끄러운 공예를 제공했다 나만,몇 년 동안 수행하는 승객을 통해 도시의 수에서도 여러 세대에 걸친 나의 참는다.

태양은 고대 도시 위에 세워져 우아한 사암 건물 사이의 더러워진 리본 선으로 물 위를 향하게했습니다. /시원한 저녁 바람을 깊이 호흡,

이 놀라운 운하의 도시보다 더 아름다운 곳이 있었습니까? 보트가 계류로 완화되면서 나는 화성의 어두워지는 하늘로 위로 만족과 함께 시선을 멈추었다.

The Gondolier in Japanese

 To start the year off, here's one of my new translations of The Gondolier:


ゴンドラ

 ギャレス-D-ジョーンズ著


私のゴンドラの黒い船首は、運河の穏やかな海を通ってスムーズに切断しました。 洗練された工芸品は、長年にわたって私によく役立っていた、私の祖先の世代の指導の手の下 で街の水路を通って乗客を運んだ。

太陽は古代都市の上に沈んでいて、優雅な砂岩の建物の間の真っ黒なリボンラインに水を回し ていました。 /涼しげな夜の風を深く吸い込んだ",

この不思議な運河の街よりも美しい場所はありましたか? ボートが係留に楽になったので、私は火星の暗くなる空に満足して凝視するのを止めました。
