An illuminating anthology about translating and translators from Lynne Sharon Schwartz.An illuminating anthology about translating and translators from Lynne Sharon Schwartz.
In Today''s Tower of Babel, Lynne Sharon Schwartz has assembled sixteen stories and essays by prominent fiction writers and translators about the way in which translation operates in our lives. We come to see that translation lends itself to a wide variety of metaphorical uses, among them misunderstandings in love, war, and other major life events. Ultimately the stories and essays in this collection are about no less than communication itself: its limitations, its rewards, and above all its importance in today''s rapidly shrinking world.
