Bad Editing
This is a horribly printed book. The actual story is good but this particular printing is horrible.
Buy this book from another printing company.
In this copy the letters with umlauts apparently messed up the printing. Click on the book and go to page 3 and at the top in the first three lines is an example of what I am talking about. Also there are tons of grammatical errors. Commas are missing. Misspellings are rampant. It looks like a first edition translation from German gone wrong. I haven't looked at any other copies printed by other printing companies but I think it is safe to say that a classic like this has been edited better by other printing companies.
Right now I am in Chapter 3 and I don't know whether to keep reading or buy a different copy because these errors are ruining it for me.
Good story but horrible edition
This a very important work, perhaps a little dated in it's language but a classic nonetheless. BUT this particular edition is practically unreadable due to the formatting, typos and errors. It looks like a cheap knock-off and is very difficult to read. I ended up buying a different version to finish the story.
Do yourself a favor and avoid this edition.
Publisher
Formatting errors abound, umlauts are not printed correctly, and the back cover has a misspelling. I highly recommend you buy this book from another publisher. It does not seem as though the publisher deemed it worthwhile to take even a cursory glance over the book before printing it.
