Literature Ireland's Translation Grant programme invites international publishers to apply for a contribution towards the translation of Irish literature from English or Irish into another language. For 30 years now, Literature Ireland's archive has housed copies of these awarded books!
In February we received copies of 8 books in 8 languages:
Seán Hewitt's "Open, Heaven" in Danish trans. by Signe Lyng (@forlagetgyldendal)
