For @apofenie I interviewed @MonicaCure about her new translation. (Extra exciting since today is International Translation Day!) Thank you @TsurkanKate!

Happy #InternationalTranslationDay! Translation is so meaningful, beautiful, and healing. Thank you, @irinaacostache (and @TsurkanKate) for this interview in @apofenie. Can't wait to meet up in NYC on Oct. 15th to talk more about Too Great a Sky by Liliana Corobca @7StoriesPress!
