Translating Your Grandfather's Literature with Roberto Van Eyken
Manage episode 408709644 series 2820303
In this episode of the Meet the Translator podcast, I'm joined by Roberto Van Eyken, a translator who has had the unique opportunity to translate his own grandfather's literature.
Listen along to find out about Roberto's path into translation and what it's like to translate something with such a personal and emotional aspect to it. We chat about the two books Roberto has translated so far, The Slope of Memory and The Woman Who Escaped from Sodom - both originally written in Portuguese by José Geraldo Vieira.
If you'd like to get in touch with Roberto or you have any more questions for him, you can email him at tijucaboy@gmail.com and if you're interested in reading Roberto's English translations, they're available to purchase online - you can buy The Slope of Memory here and The Woman Who Escaped from Sodom here.
Thank you to Roberto for joining me on this episode, to Kirion Press for sponsoring this episode, and to Pippa Williams for making the podcast jingle and editing this episode.
If you have any questions or comments about the Meet the Translator podcast in general, please send an email to meetthetranslator@gmail.com.
