Here’s the penguin translation, it doesn’t really show off how bad the translation is but there are times where the sentences are really awkward to read - almost like someone just put the entire novel through some university-level google translate rather than actually sitting down and going through each sentence.

Thanks so much for sharing that though, I’ve always wondered what his last moments would have been like; I’m still surprised that he didn’t kill himself in Turin. I’m currently reading his letters and if it isn’t clear how much he loves Turin in his novels, boy is it blatant in his letters.
