The Sofia House of Literature and Translation is hosting a new series of events called "Translator's Telescope", which will feature discussions with translators who work from Bulgarian into other languages. The translators will share their views on Bulgarian literature.

Today at 6pm Bulgarian time, you can tune in to the House of Literature and Translation's Facebook page to hear from Giorgia Spadoni, an Italian translator of Bulgarian literature. She will discuss her perspective on current trends in Bulgarian literature, her recent readings and her translation projects. Spadoni will also talk about how Bulgarian literature is perceived by readers and publishers in Italy.

Giorgia Spadoni holds a Master's degree in Translation-Editing from St. Kliment Ohridski University. She won the Leonardo Pampuri Prize for Literary Translation in 2018 and was a finalist for the PEN Prize for her translation of Dejan Enev's Circo Bulgaria (Bottega Errante Edizioni, 2023).
