Mike is an author who has in my opinion lost sight of his writing abilities.  Maria is a talented, unpublished writer, who has dreamed of being published.  She is frustrated, while he is a bit of a lazy so  n so.  The author Simon Hugh Wheeler did a great job making this seem real.  Maria having to deal with loads of rejections, while we have Mike who has his detective novels going along so so.Mike is told he will need to put out something better than so so, or be dropped by his editor.  Maria has no real editing background, however she attempts editing in the hopes of holding onto her own dreams.Maria gets stuck with Mike's novel.  Being disgusted with it she makes her own changes. She learns to see past Mike's dare I say laziness.Simon Hugh Wheeler did a job creating this novel.  I believe his depiction of the real world was done quite nicely.  Though it is not my cup of tea, I give Loosely Translated 4 stars, because it was well written, and humorous.
