The Seforim blog is in the middle of a reconstruction, so the link won’t work for the time being, but Dr. Marc Shapiro once wrote a fascinating article there on the dishonest biographers/translators of Rabbi Elyashiv.
The original biography in Hebrew truthfully describes his negation of all interpersonal relationships, including his own close family. The “adapted” English biography, on the other hand, well-aware of the culture difference, omits many of these stories, and even adds the new and contradictory claim “Rav Elyashiv’s family members held back from him because he would care too much“.
Source: Rationalist Judaism, titled “And Man Made Godolim In His Images“.
I didn’t see the original article by Marc Shapiro, but I have independently heard this claim made elsewhere of the English version. Needless to add, the true facts are known.
UPDATE: Here is the new link.
