Granta is to be commended, in launching a Spanish language edition, for selecting 22 young authors some of whom, previously not available in English, will now be.http://www.granta.com/Online-Only/Bes...
Of the 22 novelists, 6 are from Spain and a whopping 8 from Argentina. A nice touch with Argentina being hosted at the Frankfurt Book Fair.
The parent Granta is to be commended for devoting their current issue, 112, to writers from Pakistan. Most are writing in English but there are some translations in the volume.
Asymptote is a newish international journal on literary translation. The latest issue (July) contains a work by Robert Walser.
Brass Monkey Books is a new imprint showcasing the distinctive style and cadence of writing from the Indian sub-continent, much of which has never been published outside of India.
Henry Holt , a Macmillan imprint, publishes some great translations. Also, The Overlook Press . Neither focuses exclusively on translations, but they both have a nice selection regardless.
New journal discovery:
Circumference: Poetry in Translation
Circumference is a print and online journal whose mission is to support poetry in translation; primarily translations of new work from around the globe, new visions of classical poems, translations of foreign language poets of the past who have fallen under the radar of American readers, and pieces that illuminate translation as a vibrant, necessary interaction. Through our website we facilitate conversations about international literature and translation in real-time, and promote dialogues that enliven our sense of what it means to bring new work into English.
