Uitgeverij Nijgh & Van Ditmar feliciteert Han Kang met de Nobelprijs voor literatuur van 2024!

[Athenaeum Boekhandel @Athenaeum]

We belden met @Matthotkd, vertaler van @Nobelprize-winnaar Han Kang (bij @Nijgh): 'Het is totaal verdiend, ik vind haar weergaloos.' Lees de vertaler over haar poëtische taal, het weglaten in het Koreaans, en hoe een Engelse tussenvertaling culturele nuance weghaalt.

[Mattho Mandersloot @matthotkd]

@rymkezz Dankjewel!

[Mattho Mandersloot @matthotkd]

YES YES YES YES

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

In her oeuvre, 2024 literature laureate Han Kang confronts historical traumas and invisible sets of rules and, in each of her works, exposes the fragility of human life. She has a unique awareness of the connections between body and soul, the living and the dead, and in her poetic and experimental style has become an innovator in contemporary prose.

Thank you @BrunoBFigueroa! The novel has also been translated into English by Emily Yae Won and @p_niyahmorris as WE DO NOT PART. It will be out in January 2025.

[Bruno Figueroa @BrunoBFigueroa]

I am also proud of Mattho Mandersloot, who translated the published Dutch version of “Don’t say goodbye” from Han Kan. May new books from her come to your expert hands, Mattho!

[Bruno Figueroa @BrunoBFigueroa]

To my Korean friends: I share the joy and proudness for the Nobel prize of literature given to an extraordinary writer, 한강. “The vegetarian” was the first Korean novel I read when I was Ambassador in Seoul. I even read 2 different translations and compared style and meaning 👉🏼

THIS IS NOT HAN KANG'S ACCOUNT.

IT IS RUN BY TOMMASO DIBENEDETTI, A MAN WHO CREATES FAKE ACCOUNTS FOR AUTHORS SO OFTEN HE HAS A WIKIPEDIA PAGE FOR IT.

STOP GIVING HIM WHAT HE WANTS (attention, lols) https://t.co/lzc8fcCh88

[Jen Calleja @niewview]

✨ As always, make sure you also celebrate the translators! Han Kang was crafted into English by @videshi_beti @p_niyahmorris & Emily Yae Won ✨
