jillpadams 's review for:

Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak
4.0

I liked him more than Crime & Punishment, and less than War & Peace/Anna Karenina. The translation I read (sadly didn't remember to write down who did it) was really really really wonderful, and the writing is beautiful -- but the plot didn't impress me so much. This is a sinful analogy, but Dr. Zhivago : War & Peace :: Babel : Traffic.
