How does a book survive a journey between languages? Three exciting literary translators and writers join forces for a lively chat about their craft. Polly Barton (Butter, Hunchback), Daniel Hahn (A General Theory of Oblivion, Pelé: The Autobiography), and Anton Hur (Cursed Bunny, Love in the Big City) unpack why human translation still matters in an age of AI and how translation is more than a bridge between cultures: it’s a creative act in its own right. Chaired by Adam Biles.

Supported by the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences.
