Vidya Pai vidy...@sify.com wrote to me: "Your call t olist novels set in Goa 'inspired' me to set my house in order. I listed all the short stories I've translated, as well as the handful of novels. These have been translated from Konkani written in the Devanagari script -- the quality of stories/translations varies; but one has to work with whatever is available!

Many thanks for this list! Sharing it here with anyone who might find it useful. FN

Can such a thing be done without violating the author's copyrights?

Warm Regards,
