SUMMARY:Lucas Adams and Álvaro Enrigue on Quino's Mafalda
DESCRIPTION:On June 20th\, we’ll gather at McNally Jackson Seaport to celebrate the release of Quino’s legendary Argentine comic\, Mafalda. Lucas Adams and Álvaro Enrigue will join forces to discuss Frank Wynne’s vivifying translation and Mafalda‘s sensational impact in Latin America and beyond. Enrigue says that he “understands the world\, still\, through the eyes of Mafalda”—there’s no better pair to help us bring Mafalda to English readers. This event will begin at 6:30pm\, we hope to see you! \nLucas Adams is the editor of New York Review Comics\, an imprint of New York Review Books. His cartoons\, illustrations\, and writing have appeared in The New York Review of Books\, The New Yorker\, The Paris Review Online\, and elsewhere. He lives with his family in Sunnyside\, New York. \nÁlvaro Enrigue was a Cullman Center Fellow and a Fellow at the Princeton University Program in Latin American Studies. He has taught at New York University\, Princeton University\, the University of Maryland\, and Columbia University. His work has appeared in The New York Times\, The Believer\, The White Review\, n+1\, London Review of Books\, El País\, among others. Enrigue was born in Mexico and lives in New York City. \nQuino was an Argentine cartoonist whose beloved Mafalda comic strips were first published in 1964 and ran until 1973. Quino created the utterly original\, inquisitive\, intelligent\, ironic\, non-conformist Mafalda\, whose greatest concerns are peace and human rights (one day\, she plans to be a UN ambassador). The stories of his rebellious character have been translated into twenty-six languages and published in newspapers and magazines worldwide. Quino’s awards include the Cartoonist of the Year Award at the International Salon of Montreal (1982)\, two Konex Platinum Awards for Visual Arts-Graphic Humour (1982 and 1992)\, the Quevedos Latin American Prize for Graphic Humour (2000)\, and the Prince of Asturias Award for Communication and Humanities (2014). Life-size statues of Mafalda dot park benches and gardens throughout Latin America.

SUMMARY:A Conversation with Maureen Freely and Zain Khalid at the McNally Jackson Seaport bookstore
DESCRIPTION:Join Maureen Freely and Zain Khalid for an in-person discussion of Maureen’s translation of Sevgi Soysal’s Dawn at the McNally Jackson Seaport bookstore. Dawn is a fiercely lucid examination of voices of protest in Turkey amid political turmoil. The conversation will take place on May 24th at 7 pm EST.  \n  \n \nMaureen Freely was born in the US\, raised in Turkey\, and educated at Harvard. A professor at the University of Warwick\, she is currently the president of English PEN. Her seventh novel\, Sailing through Byzantium\, was chosen as one of the best novels of 2014 by The Sunday Times. She has translated or co-translated a number of Turkish memoirs and classics\, including The Time Regulation Institute by Ahmet Hamdi Tanpınar and five works by the Turkish novelist and Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk. She also co-translated A Useless Man by Sait Faik Abasıyanık with Alex Dawes. She is widely regarded as the foremost translator of Turkish literature. Sevgi Soysal was the first writer she ever translated. \n  \n \nZain Khalid’s writing has appeared in The New Yorker\, n+1\, The Believer\, Astra Magazine\, McSweeney’s Quarterly Concern\, and elsewhere. His debut novel\, BROTHER ALIVE (Grove Atlantic)\, is a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle John Leonard Prize for best first book in any genre and was named a best book of 2022 by Library Journal and other outlets. He is also the fiction editor at The Drift.  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nSevgi Soysal was born in Istanbul in 1936. Her work is inspired by her childhood in Ankara\, youth and student movements in Turkey\, revolutionary dreams\, and experiences of leftist intellectuals in prison and in exile. In 1974\, Soysal won the prestigious Orhan Kemal Award for Best Novel for Noontime in Yenişehir\, which she wrote while in prison. Dawn was published in 1975\, a beautiful thematic companion to her memoirs of prison life\, which were originally published in the newspaper Politika and published in a single volume as Yıldırım Area Women’s Ward in 1976. She wrote a brilliant set of endearing and illuminating story collections\, novels\, and memoirs over the course of her short life. Soysal died at the age of 40 of cancer in 1976. She left behind an incomplete novel\, Welcome\, Death! \n

SUMMARY:Jacob Rogers on The Last Days of Terranova with Eric Banks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation on the practice of translation and often-intertwining literary and political history with translator Jacob Rogers and Eric Banks. They will discuss the translation of Manuel Rivas’s novel The Last Days of Terranova. The event will take place at McNally Jackson Seaport on January 24th at 7:00 pm. You can register for the event here — RSVPs are required. \nJacob Rogers is a translator of Galician and Spanish poetry and prose. He has received grants from the National Endowment of the Arts and the PEN/Heim Translation Fund\, as well as winning the Poetry in Translation Prize from Words Without Borders and the Academy of American Poets. He has helped coordinate two features of Galician-language writing\, in Words Without Borders and Asymptote\, and his translations have been featured in a variety of publications. His translation of Carlos Casares’s novel\, His Excellency\, was published by Small Stations Press in 2017. \n\n  \nEric Banks is director of the New York Institute for the Humanities. He is the former editor in chief of Bookforum and a former senior editor of Artforum. He is a past president of the National Book Critics Circle. Banks is consulting editor of the digital Robert Rauschenberg catalogue raisonné. \n  \n  \nThe Last Days of Terranova tells of Vicenzo Fontana\, the elderly owner of the long-standing Terranova Bookstore\, on the day it’s set to close due to the greed of real-estate speculators. On this final day\, Vincenzo spends the night in his beloved store filled more than seventy years of fugitive histories. Jumping from the present to various points in the past\, the novel ferries us back to Vicenzo’s childhood\, when his father opened the store in 1935\, to the years that the store was run by his Uncle Eliseo\, and to the years in the lead-up to the democratic transition\, which Vicenzo spent as far away from the bookstore as possible\, in Madrid. Like the bookstore itself\, The Last Days of Terranova is a space crammed with stories\, histories\, and literary references\, and as many nooks\, crannies\, and complexities\, brought to life in Rivas’s vital prose.
