New translation from Penguin Classics

Latest comment: 6 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Looking at various English editions online, I spotted a new Penguin Classics edition translated by Martin Palmer slated for publication next February. Not yet clear which version or whether it's abridged like his Romance of the Three Kingdoms (I suspect the listed page count of 400 is a placeholder), but I thought I'd flag it so it could be added to the article as more info comes out. ~2026-18220-26 (talk) 20:30, 23 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Other adaptations?
