a good occasion to say: thanks for doing this! (in the name of several readers) -- dusko Roy Lisker wrote:
My translation of Harvests and Sowings (Alexandre's own notion of how the title should be translated by the way)is in fact available for free from my website. I just stopped doing the translation after the Introduction and Preface because I didn't have time to continue it unless there was some money to pay for it. However, at <http://www.grothendieck-circle.org>, there are dozens of pages of biographical material about AG, his mother and his father. Every now and then Leila Schneps adds to it. Incidentally, I've finally found the time to edit and revise the Ferment series "Quest for Grothendieck". It was hastily put together in 1989 and needs considerable work to bring it up to book quality. I estimate that the work will take about a year .Roy L.
