Bio

A good
translation captures the spirit of a text without slavishly following it to the
letter.

It
captures the energy and texture and voice of the source text and replicates
them in the translation, drawing on all the resources of the target language.

A good
translation conveys what is written between the lines. A good translation
exudes empathy.

A good
translation elicits the same emotional response in the reader as the source
text does in its readers.

A good
translation doesn’t colonize the work but preserves the joys and beauties of
its “otherness” without resorting to weird foreignisation.

A good
translation perfectly resolves the tension between meaning and music, and that
of being source-text oriented and target-reader oriented.

A good
translation is bold and creative, a good translation sings.
