Curious Reader | Translators I love and I think you will too | #WITMONTH 2024 @CuriousReader | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
In honor of #witmonth I wanted to celebrate some of my favorite women who translate other women into English. These are translators I associate with the skill of their craft, whose name on a book will peak my interest regardless of the author or plot. I would love to hear about the translators you would put on a list of favorites, or perhaps translators whose work you've read the most of. Hope you're all having a great reading month! xx
