Did I fuck up by buying this edition of The Book of Disquiet, it will it be practically the same as the zenith version? I read some reviews and I’m having second thoughts

All translations are essentially different works entirely. That's the truth of the matter. When somebody says "this is a good translation", they're saying "this person captured what I think this book was about even though I didn't read it in the original language", at least for the most part.

>>	Anonymous Sat Jan 26 01:14:11 2019 No.12478285 >>12478204 no in 'essence' the idea is the same

>>	Anonymous Sat Jan 26 01:23:14 2019 No.12478318 >>12478285 No. The essence of a translation is agreed upon as, at most, similar to the original. It's never the same.
