Yeah, I think English translations on average are better than those in smaller languages.

On balance, I'm glad I read the Steegmuller translation when I read the novel.

Regardless, if Pleiade is the best France has to offer, their book industry is awful.

I think it is more about the "authentic experience" than about intent.
