August is also Women in Translation Month, so I am mentioning some fine translations and also out great translators, with a special salute to Natasha Wimmer, one of the greatest of all. Sorry about the overuse of the word ANYWAY, I guess I am still a little tired and should have redone this video, but it’s what I did and I always feel like I am talking directly to you. Doing a better one isn’t always better, so here it is. I also am including below the cover of Clarice Lispector’s Too Much of Life.
Perhaps you could offer your discoveries of women in translation….
