Anyone here ever read an English translation of RoTK? I want to pick one up, but you know how it is, there are several and I don't have a clue about which is best. This isn't anime; I can't exactly compare them directly.
The translations I have available are the Brewitt-Taylor one and the Yu Sumei one. Brewitt-Taylor is a really old translation, with its original edition already in the public domain; the Yu Sumei work is probably the newest around. I know that the Moss Roberts translation is supposed to supersede the Brewitt-Taylor one, but it's unfortunately not available to me.
CDB, would someone in your family be in the know about this, maybe?
