The above book is meant o have won some prize. I don't much like it, I'm afraid, as I find it too verbose. Its sentences are too long, and the vocabulary is obstruse/abstruse. It is bilingual, but I don't know in which language it was originally written.

Simpler books are easier to follow. I'm at the stage where I can follow intermediate texts, where both languages exist side by side, and when the subject matter is from ordinary life.
