Visited Oberlin to give a guest lecture in @MilkovaStiliana's advanced translation workshop & to chat about my and @nataliedelmar's baby, Four Minutes. The students then wrote these absolutely impressive reviews for @ReadinginTrans. I loved all of them, but this one in particular really stood out: readingintranslation.com/202…

Many thanks to @CarnevaliAlice1 for the wonderful and professionally executed interview about “My Brilliant Friend” and #ElenaFerrante’s global success! You can find here a link to the full interview and video: euronews.com/culture/2024/07… 📚💕
đź“šâť“Elena Ferrante is one of the most acclaimed authors in the world. Yet, to this day, readers do not know who Ferrante truly is.
We asked @EnricaFerrara to guide us through Ferrante’s bestseller, "My Brilliant Friend". ⤵️

Marosia Castaldi’s The Hunger of Women may be formidable in the current climate (low “serious reader” counts widely reported) which makes it all the more thrilling to see the brilliant Isabella Livorni pay it serious attention on @ReadinginTrans.
