That is a weird, incorrect title...I don't know, like someone added spam to it. Nor does it need an English-speaking translator; it's written in English.

Thank you!
Debi

The correct title (even with the weird punctuation):

Timothy; or, Notes of an Abject Reptile

To help volunteer librarians, please add [Done] or similar to the title of this post.

Debi Cates (debicates) | 32 comments Sweet! Thanks Greg!

Is the translator necessary? Can it be removed? I don't know what language this audio was supposed to be in, or if it is just part of the same mess that happened with the title.

I'll add done when I hear back, yay or nay.

Debi Cates (debicates) | 32 comments Scott, yes, I know and that's great.

But I discovered the person is not a translator (google).

It's the NARRATOR. I don't believe GR lists narrators as translators. Matter of fact, I'm not sure I've seen narrators listed on GR, although I don't partake of a lot of audio books.

Scott | 8696 comments Ok, changed to narrator.

Hi Greg, what source did you find for this?

First I looked at the other editions on Goodreads, then I checked Amazon and finally the publisher:
