Reading the World: A Panel on Literary Translation

October 14 at 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm PDT

This event will be held at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, October 14th, in the Worthington Conference Center. Free and open to the public.  Sponsored by Oly Fed In this evening presentation, which is free and open to the public, three award-winning translators will discuss the pleasures and challenges of translating texts into English. How does a translator convey a work of literature from one language and culture into another? What is the process that brings us voices and stories from around the world? Each panelist works from a different language and specializes in a different genre—fiction, nonfiction and poetry. The panel will be followed by audience Q&A and a book-signing, with books by all of the translators available for purchase on site.
