Description

<div><p>A masterpiece of world literature, in a bold new translation that makes no attempt to smooth out the rough diction, hesitations, or double-takes in the Russian--linguistic traits essential to the integrity and life of this text that is truer to the original than any other ever produced.</p><h3>Review</h3><p>"[Dostoevsky is] at once the most literary and compulsively readable of novelists we continue to regard as great . . . <em>The Brothers Karamazov</em> stands as the culmination of his art--his last, longest, richest and most capacious book. [This] scrupulous rendition can only be welcomed. It returns to us a work we thought we knew, subtly altered and so made new again."--Donald Fanger, <em>Washington Post Book World</em><br></p><p>"It may well be that Dostoevsky's [world], with all its resourceful energies of life and language, is only now--and through the medium of this translation--beginning to come home to the English-speaking reader." --John Bayley, <em>The New York Review of Books</em><br></p><p>"Heartily recommended to any reader who wishes to come as close to Dostoevsky's Russian as it is possible."--Joseph Frank, Princeton University<br></p><p>"Far and away the best translation of Dostoevsky into English that I have seen . . . faithful . . . extremely readable . . . gripping."--Sidney Monas, University of Texas<br></p><h3>Language Notes</h3><p>Text: English (translation)<br>Original Language: Russian </p></div>
