The Brazilian Translation Club carries on online!

Join us for our virtual translation club workshop on the short story ‘Aí eu fiquei sem esse filho' by Brazilian author and translator Carla Bessa. Our guest translator is Fábio Cazé.

Join us for a virtual glass of wine and some discussion on Brazilian literature. All are welcome, and you do not have to be a translator to join in. 

The Brazilian Translation Club is a series of workshops in which students, translators, and enthusiasts of Brazilian literature meet to discuss the translation of a selected contemporary Brazilian short story. It is a partnership between Ana Cláudia Suriani da Silva, Associate Professor in Brazilian Studies, Department of Spanish, Portuguese & Latin American Studies, UCL, and Nara Vidal, writer, and owner of Capitolina Books. In each workshop, a different member reads out their translation and leads the discussion. The sessions are fun and very productive. Anyone who translates from and into Portuguese or has some knowledge of the language is welcome.
