Wells / Welles

[Prof Steven P Hill]

Dear colleagues & Prof Siskron:

"Dr. Moreau" (the original book) was written by the British novelist H. G. 
Wells ("Gerbert Vell's" in Russian).  In subsequent decades that book was 
adapted for the screen (first and most famously starring Charles Laughton).
In one of the later, post-Laughton adaptations, it's possible the U.S. actor 
Orson Welles (6 letters) was involved...

Best wishes to all,
Steven P Hill,
University of Illinois.

I was wondering if anyone happens to know the dates when Mary  
Shelley's Dr. Frankenstein and Orson Welles' The Island of Dr. Moreau  
were translated into Russian?

Thanks,
Katerina Siskron, SFSU
