The Butcher posted:2) Is the issue that it's a translation? (Read the Richard Pevear & Larissa Volokhonsky one fwiw.) Is it really good in the original Russian but just comes over dry as hell in English? I could see if you took something like Kerouac where the prose is almost poetry at times and translated it that the beauty and emotion inherent to the structure and flow of the language itself could be lost. You know a goon made an interesting post on this elsewhere https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3728926&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=50#post464107869
