A lyrical\, nonlinear meditation on memory\, time\, and history\, Needle’s Eye blends autobiography and fiction to reflect on a half-century of Polish life. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the Polish Cultural Institute and The Brooklyn Rail. \nBill Johnston received the 2019 National Translation Award in Poetry for his rendering of Adam Mickiewicz’s epic narrative poem in rhyming couplets Pan Tadeusz (Archipelago Books\, 2018). He translates from Polish and French; his recent translations have included work by Julia Fiedorczuk\, Wiesław Myśliwski\, Charles Ferdinand Ramuz\, and Jeanne Benameur. His other honors include the PEN Translation Prize\, the Best Translated Book Award for Fiction\, and a Guggenheim Fellowship. He teaches literary translation at Indiana University. \nAuthor of the novel A Brave Man Seven Storeys Tall (Harper Perennial\, 2014)\, Will Chancellor edits fiction at the Brooklyn Rail. His writing has appeared in Bookforum\, Lit Hub\, The New York Times Magazine\, Interview\, Electric Literature\, The White Review\, and The New York Times. He recently wrote on the Brazilian painter Lucas Arruda for David Zwirner books (Lucas Arruda: Deserto-Modelo). \n  \n
