Scholastique Mukasonga’s Our Lady of the Nile was awarded the prestigious French Voices Award for 2014. This year, the French Voices grant sponsored by the French Embassy’s Cultural Services went to twelve innovative translations that “represent new trends in French fiction and underrepresented perspectives in French non-fiction,” and on February 6th, Mukasonga’s Our Lady of the Nile was named the most promising of all twelve!
