Which is the best language to read the count of Monte Cristo?
I've always wanted to know what all the buzz is about around this book because everyone swears up and down that it's just that good but I thought I'd ask. French is my second native language and I've read thousands of books in french at this point but I fear that if I do start reading TCOMC in french it'll turn out to be ye olde français iykwim and I could probably make do with that but I want to know, was the English translation easier for you guys? More enjoyable? And what's the best translation in your opinion?
