Revisions and Subversions, A Reading of Poetry in Translation

Join us during the ALTA48 conference in fellowship and celebration of new publications by members of Third Coast Translators Collective​, Sarabande’s recent and forthcoming translation titles Ancient Algorithms and Letters of the Alphabet Go to War,​ and The Louisville Review’s Fall 2025 translations! These three organizations with connected roots in the Midwest and South center translation as a contemporary craft that expands and transforms the literary landscape. We’re partnering to bring a stellar lineup of short readings by translators including Stine An and Katrine Øgaard Jensen, among many others. Free entry, with food and drinks available at the bar for purchase. Doors at 7:30pm, reading at 8:00pm.
