that it is completely accurate, although I maintain that the English mirrors 
the Spanish in meaning as closely as is humanly possible.

                 protection buildings consisting of ten floors each.  They 
                 have been occupied since February, but, since June, there

                 investigation, but no one has found the least explanation 
                 for all of these anomalies."
4
                "Specialists have determined that natural phenomena are not 
                 the cause, nor are intentionally provoked incidents."

                "All of these phenomena have occurred during different 
                 hours of the day. In effect, they seem to be spiritual 
                 phenomena..."
p 116

                "I believe that I will encounter their origin most easily 
                 during the night."

       People: "It scares me..."

               "A strange phenomenon has occurred again."

               "Could it be the work of a madman?"

               "Do you think that a lonely person could be capable 
                of this?"

        Girl: "But it's such fun!"

        Subaru: "What...?"
2
        Girl: "I thought that"

                 department; he is not present at the moment."
p 128
1
                "Since moving to this apartment, nothing has distinguished 
                 them from the rest of the inhabitants.  Nevertheless, 
                 certain people have noticed that, since a certain time, 
                 the wife ceased to attend the meetings of a local 
                 woman's club.  As a general rule, the neighbors don't 
                 speak much about her."
p 129

        Girl: "I would like it if you would help that baby...He doesn't 
               stop crying..."

p 130
1
              "I want you to help him."
2
        Subaru: "Are you talking about the baby that lives in apartment 
                 1036...?"
4
                "What's going on...?"

5
        Girl: "Go! Quickly, he is crying!"

              "He is still suffering!"
p 131
3
        Subaru: "I hear the cries..."

                "Of a baby..."

                "I wouldn't have believed it...but..."
p 132

               "He is my son..."

               "He is part of my body. That is why"
p 135
1
               "I hit him."

               "I am punishing myself."

               "What evil is there in hitting him...?"
5
        Baby: "Wahhhh...Wahhhhh...Wahhhh"
p 136
1
        Woman: "...Why...?"
2
               "Why don't you come close to me...?"

               "I don't think about anything more than that..."

               "I pass the time punishing myself..."
3
               "But, why..."

	Baby: "Wahhhh."

3
        Subaru: "...So you knew that the baby living in that apartment was 
                 suffering such terrible torture..."
5
        Girl: "I could hear him screaming..."

              "Even when his mouth was closed...I heard the cries of his 
               spirit..."
p 139
1
        Girl: "I don't understand why that woman hit her child."

        Subaru: "Her husband took off and left her for another woman,"
2
                "Leaving her alone with the baby..."

                "She lied to her neighbors, saying that he had been 
                 transferred to another department, but that was false..."
3
        Girl: "But, why did that woman hit her child?"
4
        Subaru: "Because...she thought that she and her baby where one and 
                 the same being."

                "She saw him as a copy of herself that she had brought 
                 into the world..."
p 140
1
                "She thought that, in punishing her baby--herself--she 
                 would be forgiven..."

                "She was sure her husband would return...It is the 
                 doctor that explained it to me."
2
        Girl: "But, a baby. It is a baby."

              "It doesn't have anything to do with this woman."
3
        Subaru: "You're right..."
5
        Girl: "Is he alright now?"

        Subaru: "Yes, he's in the hospital."
6
        Girl: "Wonderful!"
7
        Subaru: "It is the inner force of that baby that destroyed the 
                 swing and made a hole in the earth."

                "Because he couldn't do more than cry when he feel bad,"
p 141
1
                "His suffering transformed itself into a destructive 
                 force, capable of proclaiming itself to the outside 
                 world..."
2
                "If you could hear the cries of that child,"

                "It is because you died in terrible suffering, is that 
                 not so?"
p 142
1
        Girl: "Yes."
2
              "It was Mama who killed me."

              "My father died leaving behind a mountain of debt,"
3
              "And Mama told me,"
4
              "'You are the person that is most important to me in the 
               world'."

              "'I can't divide us and leave you alone'."
5
              "But, I"
6
              "Am a human being different from my mother. I am myself."
p 143
1
              "The papers said that a mother had committed suicide with her 
               daughter,"

              "But I, I did not want to die."
2
              "I was my mother that decided that she was going to kill 
               me."
3
              "I would have liked to have chosen my own fate."
4
              "She killed me because she was very sad."

              "This woman was also very sad."
p 144-145
              "People do evil because, really, they are lonely."
p 146
1
              "I doubted at first that you could hear his voice."
2
              "Because I realized that you guard your sadness and your 
               pain in the deepest part of your heart."
3
              "The wind has begun to blow. I should leave."
4
        Subaru: "Wait!"

        Girl: "Hmm?"

        Subaru: "...Tell me if my sister...lives where you're going..."
p 147
1
        Girl: "What is she like?"
3
        Subaru: "We have the same face."
5
        Girl: "No, she isn't there..."

              "No one has as sad a face as yours in that place."
p 148
3
              "People do evil because, really, they are lonely."
