Best English translation of Boris Vian's L'ecume des Jours? Anonymous Thu May 11 21:58:14 2023 No.22020276 [Reply] [Original]

I am aware that there exist three major English translations, but information on their similarities and differences is very scarce.
Which translation did you read, which translation do you recommend or what type of translation do you recommend for this book?
Thanks in advance!
