Рецензия на «Boris Slutsky. Public Baths» (Галина Иззьер)

Amazing work. That was hard I'm sure, but flows like it was easy.

A few places where I had to "consult" with the original for meaning:

"summer splatter on the pond"
"guard the orders"
"So bliss and utter pleasure after / Steam baths unfolds for them in full"

Janya, happy to see your helpful presence)
"summer splatter" - will think more
"guard the orders" -I also had "There, decorations get surrendered./Awards are handed to the attendant" versions. Are those better?
"bliss" line I changed - see

"The cloakroom staff checks in the orders"?

Then I would say, " Are scars, the marks of higher order."

And I wouldn't do Laughter - after", precise rhyme is not as important.

Maybe something like

In there, the shrieks and laughs of women / Are heard behind the wooden wall. / In there, the utter bliss of steam room / Is fully felt and lived by all.

I think it is better now. The only place where I still stumble is the line break "after / The bath". That is why I suggested a change there.

I was trying to convey author's style (enjambement)

Makes sense! It isn't a big deal really.
