I'll be banging on about this more once #WITmonth starts but please always, always #NameTheTranslator
“She’s just a translator” shows that you don’t understand what translation is. Some of this comes from the ‘automation’ of translation, through things like Google translate. It’s as though it’s just looking words up in a dictionary. No. It’s an art and a science at once. To get meaning and feeling.

The first stack of books is from the library. And yes, I have more holds that have not come in yet, so this is not even really all of them. Organized by country/continent because I am trying to read more from the Global South.

Late entry for #WITMonth! #TranslationThurs 💙📚
New on the blog today, my thoughts on THE ACCOMPANIST by Nina Berberova (tr. Marian Schwartz).
An elegantly constructed story of jealousy and the cruelty of fate, shot through with intense, icy emotions and beautifully observed details. #BookSky 💙📚
