>>7067595>It is pretty lengthy desu, isnt itIt's written fairly well for a 200 + y o novel and Dumas' style isn't as needlessly intricate as Dickens and other English victorian authors but I guess with a translation you never know if it's linguistically complex or not.
>Never read that. Is it any good?Yeh more or less, the doctor's backstory struck me but the pacing is kinda too quick. I expected the creature would have appeared in the middle of the novel but no, it has already turned up on chapter 6.
>Talking about that, Chekhov is a pretty good writer desu, definitely one of my favorites (although if you try to read him in russian, you`ll probably stumble upon a bunch of anachronisms desu).I'm torn between waiting to get a solid grasp of russian and reading English translations but my I'm not so sure I'll be able to master the language in less than 5 years.
>>7067631>Do you at least have an umbrella? I have alot of trouble falling asleep too, il what you meanOf course this time I'm not forgetting it on the train desu
