In today’s episode, I review some of the books I read during lockdown, specifically Women in Translation books, this was no coincidence, as most of my translated fiction collection is made up of women in translation titles. Hope you like it. Books mentioned: Hotel Silence, by Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir translated by Brian FitzGibbon. The Chilli Bean Paste Clan by Yan Ge, translated by Nicky Harman. Tokyo Ueno Station by Yu Miri, translated by Morgan Giles. Kim Ji-young, Born 1982 by Cho-Nam Joo, translated by Jamie Chang. Disoriental, by Negar Djavadi, translated by Tina Kover.
