Kind of tickled that my interviews with @AntonHur and @niewview were the second, and third most read in @asymptotejrnl in 2025! Here's to a 2026 of more fun conversations - thank you to everyone who took the time to chat with me! https://t.co/cXqxZRIexm

@asymptotejrnl Amazing, thank you again Asymptote!

Our countdown continues!

Coming in at #3: Our interview with Jen Calleja on why literary translation is more than just language: “Translation is this human-to-human thing—someone’s telling me a story, and I’m going to have to retell it.” https://t.co/odnSANN76a

“I see translation [...] as a human collaboration. Someone’s telling me a story. I’m going to have to retell it.”

@AlexClark3 @niewview @prototypepubs I'm currently reading the copy of "Fair" that I bought at @edbookfest, and my blood is boiling at the unfairness of it all, not only what @niewview recounts about her own journey as a literary #translator, but also the parts of it that apply to my work as a commercial translator

"#Translators are [...] required to [...] sign up to the idea that invisibility is hard-wired into their value, and that a truly great translation is the one that the reader fails to notice"
