Things might be a little slow here at Three Percent this week. I’m going to be in Abu Dhabi attending—and writing about—the book fair. I’m not sure where exactly my articles\/reports will appear, but as soon as I have the link, I’ll post it here. <\/p>\n
As a mini-preview of things to come, after I get back, I’ll finish my series of posts on the Salzburg Global Seminar about translation. Also, we have a number of book reviews in the offing, including one for Rex<\/em> by Jose Manuel Prieto, which is probably my current frontrunner for the 2010 Best Translated Book Award. (Although there’s a lot of time left and a lot of books on my “to read” shelf . . . ) <\/p>\n This deserves its own post, but on March 23rd, we’re hosting a roundtable on “The Politics of Translation” here at the University of Rochester. The event starts at 5pm in the Plutzik Library (in the Special Collections & Rare Books section of Rush Rhees) and will feature Kathleen McNerney (author of a book on Merce Rodoreda, whose Death in Spring<\/em> we’ll be bringing out in May), Suzanne Jill Levine (translator of Manuel Puig, G. Cabrera Infante and others) and Amanda Hopkinson (also translated a number of contemporary Latin American writers, and is the director of the British Centre for Literary Translation). Should be a really interesting discussion . . .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Things might be a little slow here at Three Percent this week.
