### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    McDuff more colorful than Pevear
  

*by K***I on Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2017*

If you're going to tackle a big foreign book, I think it's critical to have a colorful, engaging translation. If it's too dry, the book will likely prove too much (at least to me).An example of McDuff's translation: when he translates how a poor couple has been putting aside money for savings he says, "They had a pathetic little nest egg." There's a sense of empathy, irony and depth to that voice. In Pevear the same passage as I recall is something like "They had a small savings." The narrative voice McDuff brings out is just richer.I like some of the Pevear translations: Crime and Punishment was good, and The Double, and Notes from the Underground. I re-read just about the whole repetoire of Dostoevsky's novels every 2-3 years, and I just couldn't get through the drier Pevear translation for Karamazov.

    Beware! The Kindle edition is not the McDuff translation.
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2018*

I was led to believe I would be buying the translation by David McDuff, but what I got was the translation by Constance Garnett that is available all over the Internet for free!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    In a word, brilliant.
  

*by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2017*

David McDuff is the best of the Dostoevsky translators and unquestionably the most readable for the English reader. The much vaunted P&V translations are probably more "technically" correct but what you gain in precision you lose in narrative drive, clarity and the storytelling itself. If you're only going to read one translation, read this one and leave the P&V for the pure academics to parse.
