Potioncat:
I've been meaning to ask you (Alla) which translation of "War and Peace" I should look for and I just had a "doh!" moment. You don't read a translation, do you?

So, for Alla, or other literary types, which edition, version of "War and Peace" should I look for? I don't plan to start until the fall.
