Translation on Tap in NYC Sept. 1 – 30, 2017

Welcome back, translation fans! Between the weather, fires, and the nightmares in Washington, D.C. and apparently everywhere else, it’s been hard to focus on things like making beautiful translated work and publicizing it, so I haven’t heard about as many events as would be usual this time of year. But maybe you have? Please send them along!

Here’s what I’ve got so far:

Tuesday, Sept. 12:

La Deliciosa Show Poetry Readings: Translator Karen Emmerich joins four other readers on the High Line in Radamés “Juni” Figueroa’s site-specific installation “La Deliciosa Show.” Free with RSVP, more information here. High Line, 30th St./10th Ave. entrance, 6:30 p.m. 

Tuesday, Sept. 19:

Launch event for The Communist by Guido Morselli featuring translator Frederika Randall joined by Katha Pollitt. More information here. Community Bookstore, 143 7th Ave., Brooklyn, 7:00 p.m.
