I guess it all depends whether you are after an edition that is an easy / interesting read ie for the story, or are looking for a bit of linguistic accuracy and are after a decent technical translation.

Apparently Rex Warner's translation i(Penguin) is supposed to be quite good and a bit easier going than some of the others. But frankly, having suffered classics at school, I think you must have a screw loose to want to read it for pleasure
