I am not sure whether you are referring to the same book or not but I remember few years ago I read a book (not original but translated version from sheba prokashoni) which was a science fiction (probably had the same title). The theme of that book was very interesting (So, far I remember, some people were trying to shorten the time for reforming the civilization or something like this). Are you talking about the same one?

Yep but I've read that BD version, I'm looking for english version. I read few chapters but lost it one day at rail station. Bad luck.

Sorry mate, don't have the English version.

Anyway, as you said you had read few chapters of the english version, how do you think that was ? Was it similar to the translated (BD) version ? I mean do you think the translation quality was alright or there was a massive difference ?

According to my judgement, BD translation was kind of crap. No offense. But that was the case. But good for school time reading. After all, we can get a picture about it.
Sad part is that we lose interest at later time, so don't read the orginal one. As example, if you read "tell of two cities", you will know. BD version and orginal one, hehehe...
