This. Read Garnett or if you can't swallow the Garnett pill because of all the P&V shill articles that psyoped you or Nabokov's criticism of her, read McDuff.

Any reason why it's typed like this? It annoys me.

I really like the Maude translation, but it's the only one I've read so I can't compare it to anything.

I read Garnett and I thought she did a good job. Only thing I didn't like was that the patronymics were -itch instead of -ich but of course this is very minor

Yeah if I gave that a brief glance I would think that the book was called "Punishment". I guess you could technically argue that Raskolnikov's punishment is a larger theme in the book than his crime, but it's still a weird choice.

That's a good thing, if every name has one extra character, that means the person reading the book has 10-20 more IQ points.

Wtf does that mean? Did you misunderstand what I said? Garnett translates Poмaнoвич as Romanovitch instead of Romanovich
