How We Made: Signs Preceding The End Of The World with Yuri Herrera
Manage episode 302272694 series 2780535
The rich mythology and linguistic skills on display in Yuri Herrera's Signs Preceding The End Of The World had been thought by some to make it untranslatable but in this episode we hear from the author about the mythical basis for this modern tale of border crossing, from translator Lisa Dillman about meeting the challenges of bringing the Spanish text to an English readership, from cultural critic and commentator Maya Jaggi about what makes the book so special and from publisher Stefan Tobler about why translating fiction is so important to And Other Stories as they celebrate their 10th birthday.
Featuring: Yuri Herrera, Stefan Tobler, Lisa Dillman, Maya Jaggi
