(I forget the name of the translator, but it's the most current Penguin Classics version.)

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed reading this book, given that I was already intimately familiar with the plot and that I read every single included variant they were working from(which made for a lot of repetition). Not to mention all the huge gaping gaps where the tablets had crumbled. But I still found myself eagerly turning pages; it's really a lovely thing, and I feel lucky that it's still around.
