2 trash 1 trash

Two of these are bad, one of them is a bad translation, and the other one is the only one worth reading.

I didn't say all translations are bad anon, I said that translation is bad. Although honestly, if you can't even read such a simple post I doubt you can read through any of those books anyway.

Wow, is English actually not your first language?

Crap public domain translation. Worse than not reading it at all.

The Smollett translation is fucking sublime you piece of shit

>>9571270
It any good? There are, no joke, like 30 copies each of that and Atlas Shrugged at my local bookstore

I liked it in high school. But I don't read much, and everyone on this board hates Rand.

The Fountainhead is the purple drank of literature

>>9571430
I agree, and the footnotes in that edition are also fantastic.

Read Don Quixote it is the funniest book ever written.

It's a decent novel. if rand didn't write it it might receive some praise.

It depends, like everything, but I definitely liked to read post-office when I was getting fucked by life in high school, the way he makes humor about his own disgrace is really nice to improve your mood when you are facing similar situations, at least it was for me.

It's not that "Rand" wrote it, Rand is hated because of what/how she writes.

I read the first 30 pages of Atlas Shrugged and an extreme bias against the character Jim Taggart was already clear because the character didn't consider money more important than anything else. Is the rest of the book going to be like this?

wait, remind me. why are we better than reddit again?

How do I spot a decent Don Quixote translation? I want to get one in German.
