Paragraphs are split all over the place in the Preface, and at least one reviewer notes what I mention above. The cover, as well, is not encouraging.
I opened it in my app. It’s the Penguin Classics edition. Pevear and Volokhonsy. I attached a screen cap of the first page.

I think that cover is used because it was a special edition for the Oprah Book Club. I’ve seen that cover in bookstores.

With classics, the reviews of one edition often end up attached to multiple editions, which is annoying.
