About the author
Marlies Bugmann
70 books4 followersOwing to confusing listings, I say this here:
My Winnetou (trilogy) books are:
Winnetou I - Winnetou Trilogy Volume One
Winnetou II - Winnetou Trilogy Volume Two
Winnetou III - Winnetou Trilogy Volume Three
(Winnetou II without the byline, but with ISBN 1419635174 (ISBN13: 9781419635175) is the first edition - it is out of print - the content differs.)
Complete Winnetou Trilogy
(hard cover), the book with the red sunset and Winnetou and Old Shatterhand riders, is mine.
The six pocket editions:
Winnetou and the Greenhorn, Winnetou and Old Shatterhand, Winnetou and Old Death, Winnetou and Old Firehand, Winnetou and Sans-Ear, Winnetou on Hancock Mountain, are also mine. Any books of different title, and without my name on the cover, are not my (Winnetou) books; they may be listed as different editions together with mine - hence the confusing aspect of the listings on goodreads.
I started writing small essays several decades ago, some were published, others vanished. Between 1995 and 2000 the idea of 'writing a book' came into my head - and thankfully those experiments are now 'out-of-print'. In 2002 Zumaya Publishing accepted my series of Tasmanian children's adventure stories - featuring rare and endangered native animals, cared for by the children of Sassafras Creek Valley. In 2006, a couple of young fans came to visit their favourite author of animal books - all the way from Seattle, USA.
2004 - 2017, thirteen years of translating Karl May, and creating new Karl May art. Since I began in July, 2004, I have translated (and published) fifteen (15) full-length Karl May novels (three of which will become available towards the end of January 2014), as well as thirty-seven (37) short stories; I also researched, wrote and produced the first English biography of Karl May. I am now working on three works to be published during 2014.
In 2008, I became the first author/translator to have translated and produced the entire unabridged Winnetou trilogy from Karl May's last authorised version of 1909; it is the first publishing of the unabridged trilogy as a homogeneous work by a single translator in English (including editing and proof reading, design and formatting, as well as cover art). Winnetou is also, for the first time, printed and distributed in Australia, making it the first tangible connection between Karl May and Australia. This edition is entirely, and proudly, made in Australia.
Translating Karl May is a way of life for me, literally. I grew up with Winnetou & Old Shatterhand in the cinema and on television, and owned a total of four (yes - 4 - !) Karl May novels: Winnetou I, II, and III, as well as The Treasure in Silver-Lake. After emigrating to New Zealand I lost touch with the Teutonic heroes, but in the year 2000 became acquainted with Amazon.com, and the first 'search' I executed was for an author almost completely unknown in the English speaking realms - Karl May! When I could hardly find English translations of my favourite author, I decided to translate some of his novels myself, and in July of 2004 embarked upon transforming May's Christmas novel into an English rendition.
