Dispatches from the World of Literary Translation

Hey, folks, so Meytal Radzinski – of Women in Translation Month fame – has announced that she’s compiling a list of the top 100 translated works by women (and/or transgender, nonbinary, or intersex) writers – both contemporary and older works – and she’s soliciting nominations now (and until August 25). Not sure how the final list will be decided on (I’m assuming there’s a little jury behind the scenes), but I look forward to seeing what’s on it. You can visit her on Twitter (or see above) for for instructions on nominating your favorite book(s). And yes, this is your reminder that Women in Translation Month is coming up in August! Time to start planning your reading lists, public events, parties, etc!
