Sara Baume’s first novel Spill Simmer Falter Wither was highly acclaimed and translated into various languages around the world, including Japanese (Poplar-sha, 2016). Curious about the art of translation, the author will talk about the topic and how it relates to her works in a discussion with Yoko Kato, the Japanese translator of Spill Simmer Falter Wither.
