I know this has been memed to death, but I never paid much attention to these sort of threads before. I've just bought these books for 10 bucks (the whole bunch). The translation is from Garnet. Is it any good? Have I been memed?

I choose to believe that those covers are on a very deep layer of post-modern irony.

I think it is a result of modern ad-men who haven't read the book making covers that seem to sell YA and genre-fiction novels. They don't realize that those covers don't appeal to anyone who actually wants to read those books.

I have a copy of Karamazov in that edition. Translated by Garnet.
I found it fine but again the cover art is comical
