A total joy to interview the incredible @KitdeWaal at @hayfestival this week. She was the most generous and compassionate speaker. WITHOUT WARNING AND ONLY SOMETIMES is a masterclass in memoir. I can’t recommend it enough. Get it read!

👏👏👏This was no mean feat. “…Lenka Sobotová has fulfilled her task in a sovereign way… the authentic voices of Stuart's characters… work quite naturally in Czech, as if it were not even a translation. Nothing is a more conclusive sign of a good translation than just that.”
English
We honestly can’t celebrate translators enough.
So huge congrats to Lenka Sobotová for winning the #magnesialitera with her Czech translation of Shuggie Bain. Gratulujeme, Lenka!
