Note that it has already been translated into English. The translator  
was at least working at Indiana 15 years ago, but I must admid I do  
not remember his name right now.

The book _is_ very good indeed, and has fantastic drawings. So, I do  
recommend bot a reprint in Russian, and translations to English and  
Finnish. (do both volutmes!).

Trond.
