A fascinating article on the art of #translation featuring #SSTPoetryPrize2023 judge @SamanthaSchnee! “No two translators would ever create the same translation from the same text.” #SSTPoetryPrize #xl8

The Times asked translators to discuss their work. “The idea that translation is a collaborative process, that the author and the translator are building something together, doesn’t really get as much airtime as I would like,” Jeremy Tiang says. nyti.ms/3CMWhPj

‘Building Something Together’: Translators Discuss Their Art (Published 2023)
