"In this witty and incisive memoir, Suzanne Jill Levine - winner of the 2024 PEN/Ralph Manheim Award for Translation - establishes a new way of writing about a translator's life. Levine analyses how her openness to new experiences, along with a knack fortranslating the most difficult Latin American novels and positive interactions with her authors, took her from a modest New York background into a whole new literary and linguistic world. Levine fleshes out the embodied nature of translation in provocative detail, with humor and style"--
