Hi!
I have serious suspicions that my translation was heavy edited. It is still a great book, even through that filter.
Thank you for your comments!
It most likely was, there are many parts in the book I'd consider untranslatable into English specifically, or that possibly things got edited like you said, or left out to make it more... palatable for an English audience.
(Even so unnecessarily changing the title from Krabat to "The Satanic Mill"... )
I'll really need to give it a read myself, which will not be anytime soon unfortunately because I'm neck deep in school bullshit ✊😔
Maybe someday I'll step up and try to translate the book on my own, which is a fuck ton of work but maybe it's worth it...

The most important questions in relationship aren't "Do you want kids" "Do you want to get married" or "How should we raise our kids"
It's "Would you come rescue me if I got stuck in a cursed mill"

Hello. I'm not speaking German, sadly (although I did learn German at school for couple of years), but I want to give Krabat a try. Can you recommend me where to find it in English? You probably have some resources that you like the most.
Thank to the help of @jellyloarts , yes!

(I haven't had yet the chance to read/skim through the English translations, some things could be off- or missing! The English title is also missleading- satanic themes are only implied and devil worship does not happen. The Devil isn't even mentioned.)

The master sending out dreams to get young and exploitable labour for his mill:
Every time someone drinks a shot:
When the miller men are tasked to walk and get somewhere:
When the master is being annoyed by people coming by his mill:
That one bowl they all seem to share at the mill:
The magic knife:
And finally what some people might consider doing after reading Krabat:
