I did want to give it a shot in Russian, but I just liked this cover too much not to buy that instead. Sorry droog

your pic related is a great translation. most people get pissed off about the patronyms and othe russian features being retained. you're probably a monolingual p&v reader of "the russians"

are you russian or slav at least?

at least say east slav if you mean ukraine.or west russian kekOP seems like an idiot if he thinks M&M is an example of Americans ruining classics. There's so many more and worse translations of "classics" which get praised higher as classics. The fact Americans think Dostoyevsky is something above high school lit is a better example than this.

Wordsworth is Karpelson. Read the intro note if you need a translation.
