beyond recognition

What I remember most is the wonderful conversation that Dandys had when he first met Father Faria—perfect logical reasoning, simplified here. Valentine, a young 19-year-old girl in memory, became a woman here. In my impression, the fisherman soldier Fernan has become a swordsman with a title. The owner of Morel, who was 38 when he played, looks like 83 here. The three identities and makeup skills of the Count of Monte Cristo are gone, and the inheritance of Father Faria's own inventions, chemistry, language, etc. is gone. What turned out to be three quarters of revenge became one quarter of simplification. The ability of the earl, who is good at disguise, has deteriorated. Heidi, who has always been fascinated, doesn't seem to have appeared yet. Wonderful lines, Monte Cristo's consciousness is gone.
It is 870,000 miles away from the original translation.
