Lovely to see four @rcwlitagency authors in this @LolliEditions lovefest: @OlgaRavn, Johanne Lykke Holm, @EmilioFraia and Tine HĂžeg and their respective brilliant translators Martin Aitken, @saskiavogel, @ZAPTranslations and @mishap13 đ„đ„đ„
#IBW Day 8 - pt.4. If you have never read anything from @LolliEditions, my question is why? Go for it! Embrace their mind-boggling beauty, their visceral strangeness, marvel at their uniqueness, because simply they are books from writers unlike anything you will have read before.

Past and present are mashed together in this wonderful puzzle of a novel. I loved it and hope others will embrace it as well. https://t.co/rvDQanG6Tj

Today in our celebration of #womenintranslation we turn to Demark and the wonderful @DortheNors who is published in the UK by @PushkinPress. We particularly love Mirror, Shoulder, Signal, translated by @mishap13, with its dark humour and its unforgettable protagonist, Sonja.
