Some one should try it on iOS/Android/Fire to see if X-Ray works there. I have big plans to finally read WaP but have my mind set on the P&V translation. I don’t mind spending $10.99 for it when I finally decide to sit down and read it, but I don’t want to set myself back 99 cents now for something else.
Maude translation I think does not preserve all of the original French that Tolstoy used (something like 2% of the text). But otherwise seems a good choice. P&V leaves French intact and has English translation in footnotes, and for the most part their translations are well regarded. I also fantasize about reading it in Russian (of which I have an edition) but my Russian was never great and will need considerable ramping up.
It is unbelievable how many Kindle editions of WaP there are (probably over 60). And the descriptions and reviews are all mixed up.
