Thanks to you kind souls offering opinions on the Proust question. The whole translation thing really is interesting; makes me wish I could, like, do some of it, myself. Oh that this too too solid brain would melt, thaw, and resolve itself into a polyglot's.
I'm sorry.
I mean, I'm really sorry. You deserve better.
But I digress. Have you seen that paperback copy of Richard Pevear's translation of The Three Musketeers? That shit's hot. (You need to see the inside flaps and back cover, too. Full effect.)

I know!!! I saw that paperback a couple weeks ago and thought "that's the best book cover ever!" (I think I even said it out loud). I bet the translation's pretty good too.
