49 Most-Translated Authors From Around the World

You might ask: who are the most translated authors of all time?
As always, Stacker is on the task. Pulling data from UNESCO, we've compiled a list of the most translated authors from around the world. UNESCO sorted the data according to the exact number of times an author's written works have been translated. Can you guess who grabbed the number one spot? Or do you need a clue? We've already said too much!
