Laura MULLEN, Michelle NOTEBOOM, Carrie CHAPPELL & Amanda MURPHY Alongside the French authors they translate: Stéphanie CHAILLOU, Virgine POITRASSON & Sandra MOUSSEMPES will gather for an evening of readings and reflections on translation with IVY WRITERS PARIS and THE RED WHEELBARROW.
What is it that is drawing us, during this period of increasing border divides, to translate more, and younger poets, into American English? What led these particular author-poets to dedicate their translation efforts to these specific French authors? What are the methods and reflections that these translators, and their respective authors, have to share with us about their process and results?
Join use for a reading of extracts from the authors and translators in French and in English followed by a conversation and discussion about translation, translating contemporary poetry today and translating as collaborative vs individual activity. Plus: get your copies signed by both authors & translators!
AT: THE RED WHEELBARROW BOOKSTORE
11 rue de Médicis, 75006 Paris M° Odéon/Cluny or RER Luxembourg
