Spanish in the US, Multilingual Podcasting, and Literary Translation walked into a bar, and Emily Hunsberger became the punchline of this joke. (she/ella)

So excited that my translation of an excerpt from Sylvia Iparraguirre's latest novel (why yes, we are seeking a publisher!) is out in @commonmag and readable online: https://t.co/gXLjRVZO7Z

I've been hearing @IlanStavans' name and reading his work for decades. I even cited an article of his for a high school essay on the media's role in the Elian González case. Años después sigue escribiendo sobre esa vaina del Spanish in the US. Just kidding - me fascina el tema!!

Hey ding-dongs, let’s have a chit-chat about Ablaut reduplication.

If you have three words, the order usually goes 'I-A-O.'

If there are only two words, ‘I’ is the first and the second is either ‘A’ or ‘O.’

If I may be so bold - Sylvia Iparraguirre's Before It Disappears is a novel that shares some qualities with Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend - they both are immersive portraits of a specific time and place and explore female friendship...

...although Iparraguirre exalts its quiet comforts while Ferrante examines its more *disquieting* aspects! In any case, I could barely put either novel down when I was reading them. Is this comp outrageous or reasonable?!
