For Dostoevsky, Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky are currently very popular among English speakers for their readability (although they sometimes catch shit from academics for translating literally). David McDuff's work on him is equally as good, in fact as a work of translation I would say that he outstrips them on certain works like Crime and Punishment. But they are generally so close in quality that you might as well just go for whichever is cheapest.

i think it is pretty neato

weve established it was a gift not charity

again, what precisely is the fucking problem?

maybe the only problem is that this sort of thing occurs so infrequently as to strike a person as being unnatural or unreasonable.

we should encourage more people to give freely where they can afford it rather than discouraging it so that it becomes the unremarkable norm

there's an option somewhere that says something about keeping the gift a surprise, if thats checked then the item won't be removed.

also as kind anon mentioned with his payment (depending what method he used) it will vary in the time to process etc.

What's your problem? He spent about $120 on books for people in this thread today alone and you're getting upset that I didn't want to buy the guy a $10 book with $10 in shipping and a $10 duty fee that the receiving anon needs to pay at the time of pick up? Besides, >>807622 purchased the book for him IN SPITE OF THAT.
