Um….

 

So….I’m sampling different translations of The Brothers Karamazov in preparation for December’s  classics reading, and apparently it’s a wacky comedy!    This cover appears as the Kindle edition for the Peavers/Volohonsky translation, which is the one I’m most leaning towards.

    Illustrated platinum? Judging by the cover, it looks like that means stock photos.. XD

    I thought the P&V translation was excellent. It was a long book, but very readable!

  2. That is an interesting choice, lol

    Amazing that this made it through whatever vetting that it should have had. I read the Peavers/Volohonsky translation of The Brothers Karamazov. I do not have anything else to compare it to since I have not read any other translations. It seemed well done as far as I could tell.
