i googled it just now after being the book at a used book shop and the New Yorker seems to have their head up their ass.

i know that /lit/ generally hits it on the spot regarding >translations, just wanted to make sure

Get the Avsey translation

The superior translation is the one done by Pevear and Volokhonsky.

I just picked up their translation of Crime and Punishment and it is by far better than any other version I've read.

>tfw reading a McDuff/Penguin translation like a giant idiot

>>8230426
McDuff's translations are some of the best.

Although I've read P&V of anything offered in it past reading the Garnett translation of TBK, I nonetheless loved it and would read it again.

I feel that the translation gives it a fuller English tone but then again I don't think any translated tone will ever be exactly how the authors native language intended it to be.

It's the one I am reading and although the tone dosent fit sometimes or sound how the author intended it to, it provided the content and that's all that matters.
