It took some time to get a replica of this ebook from the Chinese language writer, not simply due to the gap concerned however due to the native submit workplace quickly dropping the package deal it got here in.
However right here it’s: the Chinese language translation of my ebook on self-compassion, “This Troublesome Factor of Being Human.”
Behind it you possibly can see numerous copies of my different books in a wide range of languages. I’m happy to say that my work is now accessible in 9 totally different languages. I’d love that to be unsure figures, however that’s not one thing I can hurry.
The story behind this ebook is just a little bizarre. I found that “This Troublesome Factor of Being Human” had been translated into Romanian by stumbling upon in on Amazon. My writer had by no means talked about the interpretation.
Whereas I used to be asking concerning the Romanian translation, my editor talked about in passing {that a} Chinese language translation was being mentioned.
In looking for out whether or not the Chinese language translation had gone forward (it had, two years earlier than!) I discovered there was additionally a Korean translation, which I’ve by no means seen.
I prompt to my writer that they may need to take a look at their procedures for translations, in order that they saved authors within the loop. They took this on board and it looks as if it’s going to occur sooner or later. So when my work is revealed in a tenth language, I shouldn’t have to find that unintentionally!
By the way in which, This Troublesome Factor of Being Human has been very effectively obtained. Each single assessment on Amazon provides it 5 stars. (There are some individuals who have rated the ebook with lower than 5 stars, however none of them have written a assessment.) A number of individuals have advised me it’s been life-changing for them or individuals they knew. One girl whose son is in rehab stated that each particular person within the rehab facility had discovered it revelatory.
