We are delighted to spotlight this year’s IPTA judges, Stiliana Milkova, Minna Zallman Proctor, and Will Schutt! The Italian Prose in Translation Award (IPTA), which was inaugurated in 2015, recognizes the importance of contemporary Italian prose (fiction and literary non-fiction) and promotes the translation of Italian works into English. This $5,000 prize is awarded annually to a translator of a recent work of Italian prose (fiction or literary non-fiction). Both translators and publishers are invited to submit titles, and submissions closed this year on April 19.
