Can’t read English translation by Michael Hofmann because it uses weird mix of US/Australian slang which gives the feeling that events in the book happen somewhere in Brooklyn/Bronx and the main character is not Franz Biberkopf but Crocodile Dandy. Unfortunately, russian translation is a soviet one and thus heavily censored. Dann wird es Zeit, Deutsch zu lernen.
