What happens when translations bring their translators into the spotlight? In this conversation, acclaimed translators Anton Hur and Arunava Sinha share their personal experiences and reflect on their relationships with the works they’ve translated. They examine how book prizes, reviews, and publicity can influence both the reception of a translation and the trajectory of a translator. Together, they will discuss what the success and popularity of specific translations reveal about the global literary ecosystem, and how translators navigate their growing presence within it.
