But I must go back. I have prayed on it and meditated on it and the voice I hear always speaks the same words: THIS IS WHAT KA DEMANDS
The Dark Tower - The Wind through the Keyhole
That hand had once turned the pages of a fine old book as she read me “The Wind through the Keyhole”. Aye, and many others. I loved all the stories held in the pages that hand turned, but never so much as I loved the hand itself. Even more, I loved the sound of the voice that told them as the wind blew outside. Those were the days before she was mazed and fell into the sad bitchery that brought her under a gun in another hand. My gun, my hand.
The Dark Tower - The Wind through the Keyhole

Oh ok, thanks! In France they do the same too, they often replace an english word with a complete different english word. They must smoke some stuff they shouldn’t x)

I guess the German and French translators have some smoking partys together on which they think about the stupid titles they choose.

In Germany they most time pick a single German word, that maybe has nothing to do with the original title. Bag of Bones is calles Sara, Misery is calles Sie (she) and they made it for the Dark Tower series. The books are called Schwarz (black), Drei (three), tot. (dead), Glas (glass), Wolfsmond (wolves moon), Susannah and Der Turm (the tower).

Pulse and Love? Whay are those? :o

Puls is Cell and Love is Lisey’s Story. The title Puls is ok, it means signal, like the one in the story. But why the other book is called Love I can’t understand. Because Love isn’t a German word and the English title is different. I also can’t understand why they translate the most titles with just one word.

Because I’m excited about the new Dark Tower book I made a pics of my Stephen King books. I need nearly 4 rows in my bookshelves. Most of them are the German translations, but some I also own in the English version.
