We are thrilled to announce that Mary Ann Newman has been awarded the 2017 North American Catalan Society Prize for her translation of Josep M. de Sagarra’s Private Life! In their citation, the judges write that “Newman’s fluid and elegant translation renders with equal precision the narrative’s everyday diction, its lyrical descriptions, and its corrosive yet compassionate social critique,” and call her work “extraordinary.”
