This year Bristol Translates is offering3⃣ #Spanish translation workshops! Join @Rosenkrantz and @annielmcd for translation into English, and @CarlosMayor for our English into Spanish workshop!

Cover(s) reveal and pre-order for my next book FAIR: THE LIFE-ART OF TRANSLATION out 29 May @prototypepubs (our fourth book together) prototypepublishing.co.uk/product/fair/

.@gmochkofsky writes about the Argentinian writer Selva Almada—whose books portray a country marked by repressed male violence that inevitably, and tragically, erupts—and the fate of the feminist movement her work is central to. nyer.cm/T4S8cFJ

I've written for the lovely @clereviewbooks about Mario Levrero's short stories (translated by @annielmcd and @dedreytnien, published by @andothertweets). So funny and weird, so disparate from his later work but still distinctly him. clereviewofbooks.com/writing/mario-…

Particularly pleased to see @PELTAtweets colleagues @sophietimes and @annielmcd on this list! 👏

We take a break in January and return in February for our annual long read: The Luminous Novel by Mario Levrero, translated from Spanish by Annie McDermott @annielmcd. Join us online at 7pm London time on Mon 3 Feb. All welcome, from wherever in the world. Follow/DM for details.

"As far as he’s concerned, imagination and invention are completely different things, and he’s not interested in invention ... [a]nyone can do that." Annie McDermott on translating Mario Levrero's debut short story collection in a new Asymptote interview: tinyurl.com/yyxa3pt7

Reading this right now in @annielmcd and Kit Schluter’s translations and it’s incredible, some of the best short stories I’ve ever read.

'The Thinking-About-Gladys Machine' by Mario Levrero, which I translated with the great @annielmcd, is fresh out from @andothertweets ! A towering monument to the imagination. andotherstories.org/the-thinking-a…

THE THINKING-ABOUT-GLADYS MACHINE, translated by @annielmcd and Kit Schluter, publishes today! From dazzling single paragraph micro-fictions à la Donald Barthelme to adventurous Lewis Carroll-esque tales, this cult classic is essential reading. andotherstories.org/the-thinking-a…
