Russian readers learned the world famous book by A. de Saint-Exupery “The Little Prince” in the outstanding translation of Nora Gal` (Eleonora Iakovlevna Gal`perina, 1912-1992). She also introduced to Russian culture the best works by J. Priestly, K. C. Dickens, Mark Twain, S. Maugham, J. London and many others. In this book, she presents herself as an expert in Russian. She analyzes typical mistakes ("crimes") and officialese expressions used on radio, TV and in translations. One chapter is devoted to her teachers in translation from the so called Kashkin translation school. This book is a reprint of the final fifth edition (2007) extended with some materials from Gal`s archive and memoirs about her.
