2024 marks 10 years of WIT Month! I've been participating since its second year, so it's nine active years for me. To celebrate a full decade of promoting women in translation, I thought I would share a few of my own favourites discovered over the past ten years.
Today's favourites are some short stories -- there are not as many titles here as previous weeks, since I don't tend to read as many story collections as novels. But these were some collections that I found memorable -- some funny, some haunting, some with great writing or characters or both!
Your Ad Could Go Here / Oksana Zabuzhko trans. from the Ukrainian by Nina Murray, Halyna Hryn, Askold Melnyczuk, Marco Carynnyk, & Marta Horban |
Where the Wild Ladies Are / Aoko Matsuda trans. from the Japanese by Polly Barton |
The Lonesome Bodybuilder / Yukiko Motoya trans. from the Japanese by Asa Yoneda |
Variations on the Body / Maria Ospina trans. from the Spanish by Heather Cleary |
The First Prehistoric Serial Killer / Teresa Solana trans. from the Catalan by Peter Bush |
