Speaking up for ignorant oafs like myself, is there an English translation?

Google will give you the gist - but I can give a tidier version if needed . .

The fault is mine, I'm sure, but your Google seems to work better than my Google. The 1st paragraph of the article, 'translated' by my googly-eyed computer, reads --
CETINJE – Crnogorska spisateljica Lena Ruth Stefanović objavila je nedavno, u izdanju Otvorenog kulturnog foruma sa Cetinja, knjigu poezije sa naslovom „Đavo – Jedna neautorizovana biografija“.
Yes, that's the 'English' translation: thank you, Google. Some parts are better, though -- 'Svijetlo i tama' is translated as 'I almost complete Svijetlo'.
I'm guessing, however, that this is about the tarot project, which sounds very interesting. I wish you the best of luck with it, Steve. I'm glad this collaboration is getting good reviews.
Best,
Ed

Ah, thanks, Bill. You'll have to teach me how to do that. A glowing review!

Wow! really!! Google gives me on that first paragraph:
CETINJE - Montenegrin writer Lena Ruth Stefanovic announced recently published by the Open Cultural Forum from Cetinje, a book of poetry titled "The Devil - An unauthorized biography."
(Google does that automatically on my computor and I assumed it would be the same for everyone - sorry, didn't mean to be blase or dismissive.)

Yes; I don't know how I managed that. But given that someone else may have the same difficulties as I did, techno-barbarian that I am, perhaps it would be a good idea to cut-and-paste the link that Bill provided into the first post.
I'm betting this tarot-inspired project will be snapped up by collectors, but perhaps an e-book will come out someday so that the rest of us can take a look -- it sounds like a real treat.
Best,
Ed

As Cassius once famously said, "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our google, but in ourselves, that we have trouble figuring out which durned language it is." Believe it or not, I tried both Turkish and Lithuanian before I looked closely and recognized the Serbian...
Thanks,
Bill

Erm... but the google I use does have an auto-detect button!? But yep folks, if your's don't, the Serbian or Croatian option should give you something understandable!
