THE TALL WOMAN:

THIS EDITION:

The dual-language text has been arranged into sub-paragraphs and paragraphs, for quick and easy cross-referencing. The original Spanish text has been modernised and amended to suit this dual language project. The English text is in part a new translation from Spanish. Essentially, the two stories have been rewritten in contemporary English from the Spanish text. The emphasis is on attaining a high correlation between each set of text fragments.

The reader can choose between four formats:

Section 1: English to Spanish

Section 2: Spanish to English

Section 3: English

Section 4: Spanish
