Title: And Quiet Flows the Don, this edition
Review: This is not a critique of the novel. It is first rate and ranks with the best of Tolstoy. This is about this particular edition I unfortunately acquired. It is simply, A RIP OFF! It is oversized. Unnecessarily so. The text is actually reprinted from a smaller book. And the text is not actually printed on the paper. It is copied by a Xerox type device. You can actually see the shadows of the page folds in the margins. I'm so disgusted with my copy, I am going to sell it at a used book store for whatever I can get for it,and then go to a Barnes and Noble and buy a more appropriate edition. My recommendation is not to buy this particular edition of the novel. Amazon should seriously get another publisher for this item.
