5.0 out of 5 stars
A superb translation,
By B. J. GILBERT "Basil" (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lady with the Little Dog and Other Stories, 1896-1904 (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
These stories translated in this volume by Ronald Wilks are really superb. When one compares the translation of "The Lady with the Dog" with the earlier translation by Constance Garnett, the differences are apparent. Please compare them. The Wilks translation is high quality beautiful English expression, it captures the mood and the ideas of Chekhov perfectly.

Warning,
This review is from: Lady with the Little Dog and Other Stories, 1896-1904 (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
The kindle e-book offered here is NOT the Penguin edition. Too bad! This is very deceptive. I would have liked to see the Wilks translation as the kindle edition.

I bought this book solely because of the movie "The Reader". I've gotta say I really like this book. It touches my heart. Good translation too!
