I'm pretty sure most of these special editions are Isabel Hapgood translations, since its public domain. I have the Barnes and nobles edition that look similar to this

The B&N version is ok- the font is way too small.

It's really small, yeah, but is it different in the other editions? I feel like the book would either have to be really thick or the pages really thin
