Author, journalist and editor Olivia Snaije chairs a discussion with UK and US publishers on the publishing of translated literature, with a particular focus on Catalan to English translation. Olivia is joined by Katharina Bielenberg (MacLehose & Arcadia), Kaija Straumanis (Open Letter Books), Douglas Suttle (Fum d'Estampa) and Stefan Tobler (And Other Stories); all publishers with experience of publishing a variety of Catalan titles. What is the market like for translations from smaller languages, such as Catalan? How easy is it to source funding for such work? How do you find a suitable translator? These are just some of the questions covered.
This event took place online on Wednesday 10th November 2021 as part of an Advanced Catalan Translation Workshop in partnership with National Centre for Writing and Institut Ramon Llull.
