In this episode, we are rebroadcasting our conversation with literary translator Tina Kover. Kover has translated
Disoriental by Négar Djavadi, Blue by Emmelie Prophète, Belle Greene by Alexandra Lapierre, and The Postcard by Anne Berest, to name a few.
Highlights:
🎙 From wanting to join the foreign service to becoming a literary translator.
🎙 The way translations are pitched and commissioned is quite different than how a conventional author would pitch their work.
🎙 Translators are writers. It’s more than a process.
