Off to Madrid to Receive the Esther Benítez Award on the 15th of December

I’m off to Madrid in a few weeks to receive the Esther Benítez Award, bestowed by ACE Traductores to honour the best translation published in Spain last year! I am on cloud nine, it’s really wonderful to have won this award, voted by literary translators from all over Spain! Furthermore, it’s for my translation of La noche de los niños (God Help the Child), a book by Toni Morrison that took me to BILTC at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity and has brought me joy on many different levels.

The ceremony will take place on the 15th of December at 7 pm in room 6.11 of the very wonderful Casa del Lector, the headquarters of ACE Traductores.
