Join Cha Asian Journal & Zephyr Press — for this special (and for us, a 40th anniversary) event!
Four Zephyr Press translators — Nick Admussen, Lucas Klein, Andrea Lingenfelter, and Jami Proctor Xu — will talk about and introduce Chinese poets they translated, the translation process, their views on translating Chinese poetry (versus other genres), and suggestions for other translators, as well as read from the books. Poets to be discussed:
Ya Shi, Mang Ke, Zhai Yongming, and Song Lin, all from Zephyr’s Jintian Series of Contemporary Chinese Poetry. The event, including a Q & A, will take place via Zoom and people from all over the world are welcome to listen in. Moderated by Cha’s co-editor Tammy Lai-Ming Ho.
“Translators Speak” takes place tonight or Saturday, depending on where you live. Find out what time it will be where you are: https://bit.ly/2W8O57q.
