Seven highly accomplished translators from different countries met in Warsaw to discuss problems of money, success and self-esteem - and it kind of worked! We all came away richer in brilliant ideas and inspiration, shared by the CEATL delegates who met in Poland's capital on 9 October 2018.
This episode is in English.
Thank you Elisa Comito (Italy), Bjørn Herrman (Norway), Heikki Karjalainen (Finland), Gertrud Maes (the Netherlands), Kevin Quirk (GB/Norway), Morten Visby (Denmark), and Rafał Lisowski (host, Poland).
A note to our listeners: No, you're not going mad - the ghostly apocalyptic chanting you think you're occasionally hearing in the background is real. As luck would have it, an actual choir was rehearsing upstairs from us throughout the meeting.
