Mathilda: Do you like my big fat bugger?
David: Yes madame!
Klaus Lelek’s dialogue for The Last Course (which also comes first) is as entertaining as his trademark drawings, as both Lord Bolton and his sidekick David enjoy the favours of the buxom Mathilde.
We will leave you to translate ‘Darum gewährt mir die Bitte, sei ich in eurer Mitte der Dritte’. And it’s not quite what Friedrich Schiller meant when he wrote it in 1798.
