The second comment on the article - worth reading in itself - is signed by Švejk himself, with a detailed criticism of the Parrott translation, recommending instead a 2000 translation by Sadlon. Anyone else have insight on which translation I should read?
- bitsinthesky 3y agoSadlon sells books in parts, i read the first book of his translation. Thought it was good, but given the needing to buy multiple books and the ugly cover art, I’m happy with Penguin. If it is true Penguin is an inferior translation or too flowery, it still reads as a very entertaining book.
