Anthony Briggs' translation of War and Peace

By frozenCrown6

A lot of people seem to say Briggs’ version of War and Peace is the easiest to read, like it just flows better than the others. But I’ve also seen complaints that it takes liberties with what Tolstoy actually wrote. So I’m not totally sure—how does Briggs compare to the Pevear/Volokhonsky translations? And if you’ve read the Briggs one, do you actually feel it’s a good translation?
