    Is there an English translation/edition of The Magic Mountain that you feel stands out above the rest?

      I usually read in Romanian (native language) for 2 reasons: somehow books in English are more expensive here and although I think my English is good, I feel slow/not understanding the whole picture when reading in it.

      These being said, I think most of the translations should do the trick, as German is more close to English than to Romanian (and the translation I read was just beautiful).
