What we need is for Oxford World Classics to publish a hardcover edition of The Karamazov Brothers as they did for Anna Karenina. I’m not a big fan of the OWC paperbacks. The Penguin Clothbound Classic is nice, but McDuff’s translation is not as smooth as Avsey’s in the OWC edition. So I’m now reading the Avsey translation on Kindle, which is not ideal.

Not much to go now in Crime and Punishment. I get the feeling that Raskolnikov’s days of freedom are numbered…
Looking back at what I read in January 2025, the darkest of months.
