Description
We are another country. Displacements and languages - Writers and Translators in conversation
Thursday 24 October, 6.30pm at ICI London
Babel is the literary festival focused on translation. Understood as linguistic hospitality, translation is the practice that prompts you to go towards the other, in order to invite the other to your own home, and serves as a model for other kinds of hospitality. This is the spirit that will inspire the conversation between Saleh Addonia, a London-based Ehtiopian - Erithrean writer, whose first book, She is Another Country, was first published in Italian translation; writer Cristina Ubah Ali Farah, always on the move between different languages and countries, always stopping-by in London and at the Babel Festival where she curates the writing workshops; the translator Nausikaa Angelotti, Saleh Addonia's translator and Babel's Exec Director; Vanni Bianconi, poet and Babel's founder, who is also based in London and writes about is in a tangle of different languages.
