SUMMARY

"The merit in this edition of 'Demons' resides in the technical virtuosity of the translators. Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky...are effective interpreters of Cyrillic runes, cryptic word endings and grammars signifying something secret or encoding hidden lore. Indeed, generations of readers will remember 'Demons' under the title used in earlier English editions, 'The Possessed'...This canny translation of 'Demons' illuminates much of why authentic literary greatness was so feared in the former Soviet Union."Pevear, Richard is the author of 'Demons' with ISBN 9780375411229 and ISBN 0375411224.
