Man I feel like I’ve betrayed many other genial books I’ve read by choosing only 3.

Is there an English translation/edition of The Magic Mountain that you feel stands out above the rest?

I usually read in Romanian (native language) for 2 reasons: somehow books in English are more expensive here and although I think my English is good, I feel slow/not understanding the whole picture when reading in it.

These being said, I think most of the translations should do the trick, as German is more close to English than to Romanian (and the translation I read was just beautiful).

  • Bible (NIV)
  • The Cloud Atlas
  • The Apostolic Fathers

I would also attempt to smuggle Sayonara Gangsters in as an extra.
