I have heard many people who do not like world classics. They're kind of right. Since we are a financially low country, conditions lead us to buy cheap books. We bought the world classics that newspapers distributed with coupons. We have chosen the finest versions of the classics that teachers told us to buy and read at school. We thought we were reading a book. We didn't actually read them, they were just book summaries. I think that when translating books, especially novels, the translators cannot fully reflect the feelings of the author. A good translation is a must for the classics. Otherwise, I would not recommend you to read classics.
This is the third Anna Karenina book I have picked up. I read the other two as well. However, it is necessary to read Tolstoy and all the world classics from quality publications. Such as Türkiye İş Bankası Kültür Yayınları, Can Yayınları..
Our young people currently studying in high school do not like classics either. In the schools I went to to give books, no one showed any interest in the classics. Young people walking around with books have Büşra Küçük Bad Boy and Zeynep Sey Worm books in their hands. I wish we could instill in them that they should read quality books.
