Meeting Room B

Translator Monica Louzon describes the history, process, and challenges of publishing translated speculative fiction.

Learn about one translator's foray into the world of translating speculative fiction (science fiction, fantasy, horror, and more), lessons learned, and recommendations. Monica Louzon—Spanish-language translator, writer, and editor—will share how she became a translator, finds works to translate, and collaborates with authors and editors. She will also provide a brief history of translated speculative fiction, her insights into the speculative fiction publishing industry, recommendations for those looking to read more translated speculative fiction, and advice for would-be translators.

This program is part of Sci-Fi May-- a themed month of programs for adults. View the complete list of programs here.
