1.0 out of 5 stars False Advertising - Not the Hughes Translation, December 30, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hedda Gabler (Kindle Edition)
This is not the recent translation of "Hedda Gabler" by Doug Hughes. It is an ancient translation by Edmund Gosse and William Archer. You can probably find the identical text in paperback for $1.

I've only had my Kindle since X-mas 2009 and this is already my third encounter with deceptively labeled translations of plays. I am stunned that Amazon/Kindle would allow such sloppiness. This is unprofessional and maddening. In one instance the preview showed the modern translation of a play I desired, but the purchased and downloaded e-book was archaic, obsolete trash.

If you get the wrong product do not hesitate to use Kindle's return policy. Make sure you let them know, by e-mail or on the phone, that you don't like being bamboozled.
