Child, Book, Tree

People say we should leave a sort of legacy to the world. One may feel the need to build a home, a career, a community with members that really help each other. Some have a strong desire to write to be read. A few actually fulfill this desire.
A story is born long before it is written. It lies within the inner life of the author, his/her experiences and fantasies about love, knowledge and the simplest things.
A book is the legacy of a voice. Ten books can discuss The Civil War, knitting or success. They are all different. They own a unique tone.
Translating a novel, a dictionary or a research paper requires the same amount of attention to the original intentions, flow and richness. Touching a creation is a great responsibility and a fine pleasure. This way, thousands and thousands of distant voices are transmitted faithfully through all barriers. Even beyond sound.
