A review by infinimata
Notes from a Dead House by Fyodor Dostoevsky

4.0

Read this before in a different translation; this is P/V's version, and it's quite good barring the awkward reworking of the title. I know it's meant to be more authentic, but it just comes off as stilted. (See Janet Malcolm's essay "Socks" for why sometimes a more authentic translation is not necessarily a better one.)
