Four weeks away - Join us for an evening of conversation as part of Jen Calleja's book tour for her latest release: 'Fair: The Life-Art of Translation' It's a satirical, refreshing and brilliantly playful book about learning the art of translation. ➡️ buff.ly/lsatrR7

The City and The World by Gregor Hens (trans. Jen Calleja) (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) Loved this! A style of writing I really enjoy and such interesting content, a lot of it has stuck with me. Vaguely experimental but not in a pretentious way. Really want to read more of his work now.
