Hey everybody - I’ve got some translated (yeah yeah) books by Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky and I was wondering if anyone could let me know which translators/versions are preferred or considered the best of the bunch. I’ve picked these up over the past couple years (for cheap/without taking into account the translator) and finally want to dive in to these two authors.
Dostoyevsky
>The Brothers Karamazov - Garnett
>Crime And Punishment - Monas (this is the only one I have already read and I loved it, although I was in high school at the time)
>The Idiots - Garnett
>Notes From Underground (and other selected stories) (Signet version, not sure who translated this one)
>The Possessed - MacAndrew
Tolstoy
>Anna Karenina - Carmichael
>The Death Of Ivan Ilyich - Solotaroff
>War And Peace - Edmonds
Any help is very much appreciated
