Why go

Jan Schönherr receives the Free State of Bavaria's 10,000-euro working stipend for his translation of Scholastique Mukasonga's novel Julienne, which follows a young woman against the backdrop of the persecution of the Tutsi in Rwanda. The evening in the Saal is presented with the Bavarian State Ministry for Science and the Arts and the Münchner Übersetzerforum, and puts the craft of literary translation centre stage. Entry is free, with registration requested by email in advance.
