Thrilled beyond measure that Bristol MA Translation alumna Jo Heinrich has won the Dublin Literary Award!!!!!!! Warmest congratulations to Jo and to her author Katja Oskamp on this amazing achievement 🎉🥳
And the winner is... Marzahn, Mon Amour by Katja Oskamp, translated from the original German by Jo Heinrich (@groveregg)! 🥳 Congratulations to all involved in bringing this beautiful story to life.
We love posts naming audiovisual translators, so often even more invisible than the translators of fiction... #namethetranslator #namethesubtitler
Cette semaine, découvrez sur @PrimeVideoFR, Swarm, le dérapage délirant d'une fan qui ne tolère aucune critique de son idole. Attention, cette série est en partie basée sur des faits réels. VF par les formidables Coco Carré et Virginie Bocher pour Deluxe.
That was amazing – thanks to all #translationslam participants, especially Teresa Lander and Keziah Brombley for their expert translations, @itiwesternregio for co-organising, and Miguel García Lopez from @BristolHiPLA for hosting!

Useful thread for those of us working on book manuscripts! Likely also to be helpful to PhD students revising their theses as monographs, but also those who are still at the thesis-drafting stage.
