Santiago Aguaded Landero, a Spanish poet, translator and academic, got in touch recently and asked if he could translate and include a couple of my poems from Condition of Fire in his new anthology ALQUIMIA DEL FUEGO. The translation process is always fascinating to me, and in this case my friend, the extraordinary poet and translator Jennifer Adcock, was incredibly generous and helped with the negotiations and the translations themselves.
You can see one of the translations here:
Black Island
And here’s Jennifer and me reading some of her poems that I worked with to make very free, sound-based translations: Translation Poetry
