Not available in English - I wish someone would publish a translation!

I'm also searching for "L'Herbe Rouge". I'm from Croatia - here three of four novels of his famous "tetralogy" are available (some in Serbian, some in Croatian): L'Ecume des Jours, L'Automne `a Pékin, L'Arrache-Coeur. But no "L'Herbe Rouge"! Now, what is it about that novel that makes the translators worldwide - avoid it?

Hello. Just a quick note to say that, if all goes well, I'll be putting L'Herbe rouge into English for Tam Tam Books in a year or so, once they've published the first ever translation of L'Automne a Pekin.
