NP - Anna Karenina translations

[Mark Kohut]

Of course, Wood does.....it is a classic and all....

I am convinced he DID NOT read all of War & Peace when he wrote about the P & V translation......the egregiousness in the battle scenes, skimmed by many, I've heard, CAN NOT be missed if one simply reads with attention.
I'm no Russian scholar. (But I asked some when I read what I read)
