        I found the translation by William Buck quite readable.
        It is available in most bookstores.
        I read a paperback edition that only costs $3.95 (Canada)

        There are still others, but are somewhat hard to read.
        The one that comes to my mind is "Ramayana and Mahabharata"
        I forget the translators.  If you need more information
        I can find out.  Please e-mail me a note.
