Russian translators / poetry lovers' help needed!

[Krylova, Natalia]

Dear SEELANGS-ers,

I feel very excited to share with you the results of our recently held On-line Translation Workshop. After a month of intense networking with a very enthusiastic group of translators from 4 different countries, as well as with their dedicated experts, we managed to create an impressing collection of Vladimir Vysotsky texts in English. 

Now I am pleased to kindly invite you to join our distinguished Public Jury in selecting the three best Vysotsky translations. Please, check our "Vysotsky in English" blog and post your comments to the poems/texts that you find most interesting. 
Here is the link: http://vvysotskyinenglish.blogspot.com.   

Your help is going to be much appreciated, even if you have never been a Vysotsky-fan, for we would like to be as objective as possible in selecting the winners of this on-line contest. Feel free to share your impressions of the translations, professional criticism, compliments, or simply put your thumbs up or down! Thank you very much in advance for doing that.

Should you have any questions to the organizers of this project, please, don't hesitate to contact us at: RusskiyMir.WDC at gmail.com.

I am looking forward to seeing your professional assessment of our modest accomplishment!  

With best regards,

Natalia Krylova.
