"[Woodruff's translation] is clear, fluent, and vigorous, well thought out, readable and forceful.The rhythms are right, ever-present but not too insistent or obvious. It can be spoken insteadof read and so is viable as an acting version; and it keeps the lines of the plot well focused." --Charles Segal, Harvard University
