Rosemary Jenkinson & Tina Mahkota: 'Two People Shorten the Road' in Slovenian Talking Translations

    • Books

Rosemary Jenkinson reads a short story, 'Two People Shorten the Road,' from her collection Lifestyle Choice 10mg published by Doire Press. Tina Mahkota reads her Slovenian translation of the story from her home in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

For each episode of 'Talking Translations' we have paired a story with a language, and asked the author and translator to read their work aloud. It is our hope to share these stories with listeners around the world, heard in languages where the author may not yet  be widely published.

Literature Ireland promotes Irish literary authors and their work worldwide and is funded by Culture Ireland and the Arts Council. To read the full stories in English and Slovenian, and to learn more about what we do, visit www.literatureireland.com. For any queries, or to say hello, please email info@literatureireland.com. The intro/outro music in this series is kindly used with permission from David Hilowitz. Music selection and editing by Ciarán McCann; introduction by Lynsey Reed.
