The translation of Greek books into English is not difficult to be done and there are many people who can do it. Very professionally too. The main problem is that the cost for it is high, especially if more than one person is involved and the purchasing clientele is very limited. The best solution is to look into major publishing firms for Greek authors and their work. I have included 2 companies that are major in their field and if you get in touch with them directly they may have something for you. Especially the first one. Very reliable too. Of course as you point out it would have been good business to have Greek authors translated into English but the main factor remains the readers of those books. On a yearly Book fair taking place in Frankfurt, Germany, all the major Greek companies take place mostly as buyers of foreign authors and occasionally as sellers of a Greek title. @DVATWORK. Excellent link Diva ! Take my hat off to you .

Not off the top of my head, but would advise you getting hold of a copy of the Writers and Artists year book, that will no doubt give you the information you seek.

Also a search on-line may come up with some contacts for investigation too.
