I know. However, the "Paris Diaries" (trans. by Michael Hulse) and "The
Worker / Maxima-Minima" (trans. by Dirk Leach) never got published.
"Heliopolis" is also listed as having been published (in the late 80s by, I
think, Vantage Press). Klett-Cotta learned about this some time ago and,
having not been asked for permission, asked 
Vantage directly for confirmation. Vantage replied that there had been plans
for publishing an English version of "Heliopolis" (trans. by William
Eickhorst, if I recall it correctly), but that these plans were never
actually carried out. Regardless of this fact, "Heliopolis" is still listed
in various catalogs as being "out of print", i.e. having been published. The
new Muehleisen bibliography lists all texts and books by EJ published in
English translations. I haven't got a copy with me at the moment, but
perhaps someone who does could post the list here.

PS.: Klett-Cotta has recently published a box containing all 5 volumes of
"Siebzig verweht" in paperback. Looks quite nice and costs something like
150 German marks.
