Rant Fever 2.0

• el Seco: Next up, Mansfield Park
• Giullieta: Two questions: What ever happened to AZboy, and will he be coming to the reunion?
• Dubya: So what's after Mansfield Park?
• el Seco: Next up: Emma. In September.
• Dubya: Well I just finished Mansfield Park. My favorite by far.
• Dubya: I'm hoping I get done with Dostoevsky's "The Idiot" by September.
• Green: I started reading The Idiot about a year ago, but I quit because the translation was so bad.
• Dubya: Yeah I sort of quit already too. Not sure who the translator is on this one but I wasn't enjoying it one bit.
• Green: Best Russian translators: Pevear and Volokhonsky. According to me, anyway.
• janeheiress: Emma is so hard to read! But I'm going to do it. And Pevear and Volokhonsky are fabulous, but I've only read Crime & Punishment.
