blogs.guardian.co.uk - Jules Verne deserves a better translation service

"Jules Verne is a wonderful writer whose English translations are riven with
inaccuracies and prejudice. Let's agitate for a full reappraisal of his work.

I'd heard that the original translators into English felt at liberty to cut out
portions of Verne's original text, particularly where they felt he was getting
too "technical" or "scientific"...

But I didn't understand just how severe the issue was until I set about
preparing an English edition of a Verne title myself."
