Mcduff

I've read C&P and The Idiot by McDuff and thought that they were great. Not an expert obviously, and I don't speak Russian, so I can't judge the quality of his translations on these terms, but for me when I was reading them I loved them.

I tried a P&V translation of The Idiot and it really didn't flow.

>>8948784
It doesnt matter because his prose is shit anyway

>>8948794
Whose prose?

>>8948743
Among the best, yes.

when it comes to dosto, anything but p&v is fine

>>8948821
........................that is correct.

P&V and unrevised Garnett are the only actual bad translations

>>8948836
What about revised Garnett?

Garnett is the best.

mcduff is very good, or mcreynolds-revised-garnett, i think avsey is a little overrated and simplified, but not bad
