I've reviewed Eve Esfandiari-Denney's new book, 'Girling'.

Currently taking my time to read this scintillating and heartbreaking work, Second Hand Time by Svetlana Alexievich. A huge (700 page) distillation of so many monologues from women (and some men) who reminisce, idolise/idealise and grieve about life before the fall of the Soviet Union. The voices are those of the subjects, but she weaves a fascinating cloth from it all.

A brief, but illuminating, talk by Jon Fosse on his work. It all comes back to silence.

Für #FitzcarraldoEditions freut's mich aber. Die machen gute Sachen, auch wenn mich ihr hang zum Klischee-Litbro bei den Autoren manchmal nervt. Dafür bei Autorinnen meistens super tolle.

When I started into my first really big translation project (#AnneCarson, Eros the Bittersweet), #FitzcarraldoEditions published this very long and very brilliant essay by Kate Briggs on #translation : This little Art. It helped me a lot along the way to actually understand what I’m doing. And now I see that they will publish her first novel in May 2023. Yay! #literature #novel
