I hate the way Goodreads mushes all translations and editions of classics together. Am reading several editions at once 2 C differences, & 2 C which combination of language makes the whole comes alive. Mitchell's intro to his audio is fabulous...we have the sense of people traveling from all over the countryside to hear a portion of this tale declaimed, carrying their picnic baskets, carrying their children.

Good grief, Green started this when he was 90 yrs old. After a lifetime of teaching etc this material.
