Which version of The Trial should I get? I was thinking of this one since the cover looks cool.

i've got norton editions of both, but i've only read those so i can't compare. They both got notes and critical essays and size seemed fine, the paper is on the thin side imo and they're paperbacks, idk how they will hold up through the years.

I got penguin classic edition of portrait and the annotations were out of control, way too many obvious or pointless notes. I recommend looking for something else

thats the problem im having, all the ebooks for it either have way too many annotations, like 5-6 a page, or no annotations at all. On kindle you have to tap the footnote to go to the appendix and its a pain in the ass to read

Is this the best version (In search of lost time, Hardcover Everyman's from 2001)?
