“It’s about translating the spirit of the book so you’re taking a story and bringing it across borders—not just into a different language, but a different cultural context.” Jeremy Tiang discusses the “often invisible” contributions of literary translators in this video from the 2019 London Book Fair. Tiang’s essay “The Art of Translation: Many Englishes, Many Chineses” appears in the March/April issue of Poets & Writers Magazine.
