Kek I have that exact editiom, what the fuck is the deal with that cover?
My dad bought me this book when I was in elementary school and I thought it was about some 80s russian dude from the cover.
Just, LOL.
I never read it, put it away and I forgot about it.

Then in highschool my fucking dad died and I was looking over stuff he got me and realize this was a fucking LERMONTOV novel.
Shit just makes me sad, and he died while I was a disappointment.

It's been done, but it took the dude 20 years. As for the translation, sure you lose some things, but some things stay and new things arise in the text. I've read Ulysses in French and it was pure joy, the translation is very good (I've read every other work of Joyce -except FW- in English).

do Wordsworth intentionally use shitty pictures as a way to get people to buy their editions unironically?

I have an older copy of Wuthering Heights that has a pretty normal looking painting and would much rather own something like that than their newer editions
