I only read the book, so I'm very interested: How does the audio book deal with the main foreign language?
It's so good. It's mostly just little happy musical chords that are inserted into the dialog. The tones give Rocky a great depth of character.
Major spoilers for anyone that hasn't read the book. >!It does it all with what sounds like a synthesizer. It really, really brings the character to life. You get used to short notes for quick things he says, but then the longer expressions are amazing.!< If you loved the book and haven't heard the audio book, I highly recommend giving it a shot.
