Here's an interesting series of questions answered by a number of translators, Foreign Crime Fiction: The Translators Unedited, compiled by Bob Cornwell

Also an article by Cornwell about the (British) Crime Writers' Association's proposal to restrict eligibility for their awards to books written in English (by residents of Great Britain, I think). This year the top winner was a translation.
