Channel: Literary Translation
Date: 2017-09-30

The mentees of the second year of ALTA's Emerging Translator Mentorship Program give a virtual reading of their completed works! Over the past year, Noah Mintz, Eliza Rose, Sabrina Jaszi, and Natascha Bruce have been guided by esteemed mentors Emmanuelle Ertel, Bill Johnston, Marian Schwartz, and Jeremy Tiang. Now, they share their work with the public for the first time.

Sabrina read "No Voice" ("Нет голоса") by Reed Grachev (Рид Грачев).
Noah read an excerpt from "À l'arrache" by Patrick Goujon.
Natascha read excerpts from Lonely Face (孤寂的脸, Guji de Lian), by Yeng Pway Ngon (英培安).

Many thanks to the French Embassy Books Office, Polish Cultural Institute New York, the Russian Federation Institute of Literary Translation, and the National Arts Council of Singapore for their generous support of this program.
