Hello from the American Literary Translators Association conference in Arizona!
Tonight was the annual theater-translation event: "Cold Beers and Cold Readings," including part of my translation of "Women on Radio" by Cristina Clemente. Some people are so good at unrehearsed performances! #ALTA48

At #ALTA48, I'll be reading excerpts from my English translation of a play by Marilia Samper.
I deeply regret that so many non-US colleagues can't feel safe (understandably) coming to the US under the current circumstances. I hope to see many of them at professional events elsewhere.
I just booked my tickets for the American Literary Translators Association conference, which will take place this November in Tucson. I look forward to seeing and learning from the smart, interesting, creative people who attend ALTA! #ALTA48 #translation #LiteraryTranslation #WorldLiterature
