Finally getting around to Dostoyevsky, which translations of

>>8603729
garnett.

>>8603729
If you can find a revised Garnett translation, that's great.
McDuff is good.
I read Monas and enjoyed it.

P&V are only liked by Russian academics who enjoy accurate literalism and people who don't know what they are talking about

Garnett or McDuff

I've been having trouble deciding myself.

Serious question:

Does it contain pathetic Russian apology?

>Alas, the wickedness of the world! We are poetically the victims of our own circumstance! Behold us, world! The noble slavage will crucify himself yet again! We alone know this torment!

I have the P&V translation of TBK and Crime and Punishment and they are both very good.

I haven't read any other translations, but McDuff was pretty good. Although I felt it was very direct in its writings at time.

>>8603729
I liked the new one by Penguin. It is deckle-edged though which should be banned

>>8603729
McDuff my man

>>8603945
I've heard that translation is quite good.

In my experience newer translations are typically better.

Can someone help me find the McDuff version online to download? I can only find Garnett and P&V. I want to compare the translations.
