THE QUESTION

RESPONSES

BACKGROUND

Yet, another controversy has come into play: What about Ann Wright, the translator of this book? She states that she did not leave anything out except repetitive words, and she did not change anything unless it did not make sense when translated into English. It's true, translating never keeps the true flavor of what was originally said.

So here's a question which I am still trying to answer myself: Who is the true author? Menchu, Burgos, or Wright?
