Journal Article
Crossing the Channel: Publishing Translated German Fiction in the UK
2016
Overview
In a review of Hans Fallada’s novel
Alone in Berlin
—finally translated into English after 62 years—Sam Jordison stated, “[I]t’s an important book that no English writer could have written—and so another resounding argument for the importance of taking in translations. It makes me wonder what else we’ve been missing.” Translated fiction plays a minimal role in the UK. Scholars are increasingly directing their attention towards this deficit. This paper will consider the culture of translation in the UK and Ireland, with a particular focus on translated German fiction.
