Less than one week from today—at 2pm East Coast time on Monday, April 28th to be exact—we’ll be announcing the winners of this year’s Best Translated Book Award. <\/p>\n

Over the next few days, I’ll be posting write-ups on the Poetry Finalists, along with uninformed speculation and other fun and games. <\/p>\n

The most important thing though is to talk about the award celebrations . . . <\/p>\n

On Monday, the announcement will go up on Three Percent right at 1pm, and at basically that exact same moment, the winners will be announced at a special BTBA<\/span> event taking place at Shakespeare & Co. in Paris, France.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Shakespeare & Co. event kicks off at 7pm and will feature readings by a number of writers and translators from most of the shortlisted titles. Then, Am\u00e9lie Nothomb will announce the winner of the Fiction prize, and Sia\u00e2n Melangell Dafydd will announce the Poetry winner. So, if you happen to within train distance of Paris, you should come on out. <\/p>\n

*<\/p>\n

Stateside, we won’t be announcing the winners at a live event this year, so instead we’ve organized a post-announcement celebration to take place later that week during PEN<\/span> World Voices. Here are all the details:<\/p>\n

\n

BTBA<\/span> Celebration Party
\nFriday, May 2nd, 6-9pm<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

The Brooklyneer<\/a>
\n220 West Houston Street
\nNew York, NY 10014<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The party is open to everyone so if you’re a fan of the BTBA<\/span>, international literature, Three Percent, alcohol, appetizers, or all of the above, you should come on by. <\/p>\n
