Claws of the Leopard . . .


The Italian translation of Leopards Kill just came out, and it has an interesting title:

Gli Artigli Del Leopardo

My Italian is just barely good enough for me to figure out that that means something along the lines of Claws of the Leopard. I think the translator was a little nervous when he told me about it, but I like it. It has kind of a nice ring to it.

The original still confuses people, who sometimes wonder who it is who's being killed. And then there's the folks who are convinced from the title it's a nature book . . .
