I never read Kapital but I'd like to.

No chance I'm gonna read an ebook. Paper only.

Where to by from? Publisher/retailer? Any best edition?

Amazon if all else fails.

I think most people in the Anglophone world read the Penguin edition. I just bought it from a regular ol book store.

I have a version printed in Moscow in 1982. Pretty neat and it was cheap to find 2nd hand. I'd just look on your country's second-hand shops for it. Like eBay or Facebook marketplace or whatever. Any version is pretty good. First read it's not gonna matter much which translation! You can read about the translation fights after hahaha
