NEW YORK (AP) — English-language editions of a Vietnamese novel set everywhere from Saigon to Paris and of the latest publication of poetry by Egypt's Iman Mersal are this year's winners of National Translation Awards. The awards were announced Sunday by the American Literary Translators Association. Thuân's novel “Chinatown,” translated from the Vietnamese by Nguyễn An Lý, won in the category for prose. The poetry prize was given to Mersal's “The Threshold,” translated from the Arabic by Robyn Creswell. “ALTA is incredibly proud to recognize Nguyễn An Lý and Robyn Creswell for their masterful translations from Vietnamese and Arabic respectively, in this the 25th year of the National Translation Award,” Elisabeth Jaquette, executive director of the translators association, said in a statement.

☆ Karl Ove Knausgaard’s Novel for Our Precarious Times
  + stars: | 2023-09-16 | by ( Sven Birkerts | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
THE WOLVES OF ETERNITY, by Karl Ove Knausgaard. As the late Milan Kundera put it: “A novel does not assert anything; a novel searches and poses questions.” But in our manic and precarious times, fiction that conveys no sense of a world in upheaval can feel partial. With “The Wolves of Eternity,” the Norwegian distance runner Karl Ove Knausgaard brings us his second massive speculative novel in three years. Like its predecessor, “The Morning Star” (2020), the new novel comprises multiple narratives filtered through various characters. The first half of the novel, a section titled “Syvert,” is the anchor narrative.
