AN EXCELLENT EDITION OF ONE OF THE WORLD'S BEST NOVELS
This is an excellent edition of one of the world's ten best novels, according to Somerset Maugham's list of the world's best novels. It is both scholarly and fun to read. As a previous reviewer pointed out, you can skip the first chapter of each section if you are in a hurry to get to the end... It moves very well -- one of three best plots in classical literature! There is just one reservation on my part -- I hope Penguin changes the cover in future reprints. Its mock-heroic style is so funny, it makes it well worth the effort!
