The Novices of Lerna | Ángel Bonomini

Pickpick

I love when the right book appears at the perfect time! This beauty surprised me in the mailbox last week (I subscribe to Transit Books, but their publishing schedule is irregular). Bonomini is an out-of-print, forgotten Argentine writer, and Jordan Landsman translation brings his unusual style back to life. I adored these little stories and eponymous novella! 🇦🇷 #TransitBooks

Anna40 This is so awesome! I know the translator. We were in a lit translation workshop together. It took him 6 years to find a publisher. So happy for him and the book. I‘m waiting for my copy, ordered it last week! 6mo
catiewithac @Anna40 Your friend did an amazing job with the translation! 6mo

The Right Intention | Andrés Barba

Really really enjoyed this collection of four novellas by Andrés Barba, translated from the Spanish by Lisa Dillman. The first two were my favorite, about a lonely gay man answering a personal add and a teenage girl slowly loosing her mind. The last two, about a runner who takes his sport to the extreme and a woman whose difficult mother becomes very ill, were also very good. Highly recommend this collection. #translated #transitbooks
