Max asked this question about The Master and Margarita:
What's the recommended translation for this book? Many seem to have negative comments about Pevear & Volokhonsky. I have access to Glenny, P&V and Burgin & O'Connor.
Leana I read and greatly enjoyed the Burgin/O'Connor. I've also read excerpts of the Ginsburg, which is good, but seems more loosely translated. …moreI read and greatly enjoyed the Burgin/O'Connor. I've also read excerpts of the Ginsburg, which is good, but seems more loosely translated. (less)
