Book Reviews of Anna Karenina: Starring Teresa Gallagher & Cast (BBC Classic Collection)
Book Review: Disappointed by this translation
Summary: 3 Stars
I much prefer the translation by David Magershack (Signet Classics). Perhaps it's a case of heightened expectations not lived up to because I'd read so many wonderful reviews about this translation. It's still one of my favorite books of all time, but mid-way through this new translation I returned to my ancient dog-eared paperback. If I didn't know Anna Karenina was translated, I would think the Magershack version was simply better written. However, if you've never read this book, any translation is a worthwhile endeavor.

Summary of Anna Karenina: Starring Teresa Gallagher & Cast (BBC Classic Collection)
A dramatization of Tolstoy's great novel set among the highest circles of 19th-century Russian society. After ten empty years of marriage to a pompous bureaucrat, Anna leads a life of meaningless sophistication. When she meets a dynamic and arrogant young officer, her world is turned upside down.Literary Classics Books
