CAT on a Hot Tin Roof...

EDIT: before anybody complaints, I'm well aware it's a play and not a "book"...

The perfect title, play or book. In fact, this could be the title of a TV series dealing with a translator's experience with the daily balancing acts accompanying this profession...not unlike walking a hot tin roof.

Brilliant poll and Jack, your "War of the words" is one of the best options along with "A Midsummer Night's Deadline".

Enjoy this Sunday dear colleagues
