Peter Huchel in Translation – review

Marvellously thoughtful and well-informed review of my (fairly) recent translations of the poems of Peter Huchel. Also recent winner of the Society of Authors’ Schlegel-Tieck Prize for Translation 2020.

Many thanks to Rebecca DeWald and to Reading in Translation.

  1. Good to see this. I am reading your Huchel translations now and enjoying them very much. I have one question: what do the letters KJV signify? They appear in parentheses throughout the notes.
