Do that one it's quick

2018-04-08 15:26:22 UTC  

Dostoevsky is the best writer ever @shinjitsu

2018-04-08 15:27:01 UTC  

did you like Ginsburg translator? all the chepeast dostoevsky books are by Garnette, but other translators have been better to read imo

Hey folks, thank you for the server invite. I make Reading Lists pretty regularly, hopefully you find them useful

@Callaghan I have never read the same book from two translators so I can't say I really know

2018-04-10 01:12:23 UTC  

But that one was Ginsburg and was really good. I've heard everything from the translations change meaning completely, to they don't matter much.

I have a mcduff translation of brothers karamazov I'm reading rn

@Brook real federal agent shit

2018-04-10 04:09:25 UTC  

Read the Bible too guys.

2018-04-10 20:45:03 UTC  

This is the copy i got a while back. It was 6 bucks and doesn’t say who translated it

Off Amazon

2018-04-10 21:06:48 UTC  

@Simon Scola it has to, at the beginning

2018-04-10 21:08:22 UTC  

This is all there is. Then the book starts. The end and back doesn’t day either. I’m sure it days on the listing on manzon

hmmm odd

2018-04-10 21:10:01 UTC  

does it even have a publisher?

2018-04-10 21:12:15 UTC  

No

2018-04-10 21:12:21 UTC  

Has anyone read Bowling Alone?

2018-04-10 21:12:27 UTC  

I’ll find the link on Amazon

2018-04-10 21:13:27 UTC  

k

2018-04-10 21:15:18 UTC  

Says publisher but no translator.

2018-04-10 21:16:10 UTC  

A couple ones like this on Amazon. Really cheap and just the straight up book, nothing else

2018-04-10 21:19:00 UTC  

bizarre

2018-04-10 21:19:02 UTC  

have you read it?

2018-04-10 21:19:47 UTC  

Not yet

2018-04-10 21:20:52 UTC  

It’s a short read so I’ll probably sit down one day and read the whole thing.

2018-04-10 21:21:03 UTC  

lol no page numbers even

2018-04-10 21:26:16 UTC

the attached image isn't the only one, there's a couple dozen on there

2018-04-11 23:31:29 UTC  

Great stuff, thank you @Mephisto

2018-04-11 23:36:36 UTC  

Yeah sure thing, I'm currently doing the start with the greeks meme more or less. Going to start on the iliad tomorrow

2018-04-11 23:38:03 UTC  

I've been meaning to read the Iliad, there was a pretty good one I saw on Amazon a few days ago that was a great quality hardback with both the Iliad and Odyssey for something like £10

2018-04-11 23:39:43 UTC  

apparently the robert fagles translation is really good so i went with those, also because i like the way they look, even though the books are overpriced

I try to read books online unless I want them for long term use libgen.io

2018-04-11 23:40:15 UTC  

^libgen is a good site for anyone looking for free pdfs

2018-04-11 23:40:58 UTC  

Oh wait no, just found it, £17.16, 752 pages and bonded leather, there's something about having a physical copy and being able to collect them that appeals to me honestly
