Ep 60 - Chan Ho-kei and Second Sister with Michelle Deeter

Enter for a chance to win "The Untouched Crime" by Zijin Chen, translated by Michelle Deeter: https://hybridpubscout.com/giveaways/win-untouched-crime/Chinese to English translator and interpreter Michelle Deeter joins us for an episode about the world of literature in translation, during which we learn about Amazon Crossing—an imprint that Amazon uses for good rather than for evil—as well as translation slams, which are kind of like poetry slams with less pretension. We talk about the different ways that book translators find work, how Americanizing a novel sometimes means just adding more beer, and how a translator’s role fits into the long and arduous publishing process.
