Just started reading this engrossing novel by Eva Menasse in fine translation by Charlotte Collins. Was delighted to attend Austrian embassy event for author & translator this week. (Eva Menasse’s remarkable first novel, Vienna, was translated by my late mother, Anthea Bell.)

Wonderful event hosted by the Austrian Ambassador in London on Tuesday to celebrate Eva Menasse and her novel DARKENBLOOM (tr. by me). Exhilarating reading to a room packed to capacity with interested (potential) readers! Many thanks to Austrian Embassy London and to all who came.

Very excited to see this excellent review of #DARKENBLOOM by James Wood in The New Yorker! #EvaMenasse #translation

🚨We are surrounding Parliament right now.🚨 Holding the line. And telling PM Keir Starmer loud and clear: Starving children is a red line. Stop arming Israel. #RedLine #StarmerActNow #ArmsEmbargoNow #SanctionIsrael

Coming soon! #NinoHaratischwili #TheLackOfLight tr. Charlotte Collins & Ruth Martin. HarperVia: This immersive, character-driven epic is one to get lost in, especially for fans of Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan Quartet, Isabel Allende & stories that centre female friendship.

This beautiful novel, located between Iran and Germany, came out in the UK last week. 'The Nights Are Quiet in Tehran' ... what savagely ironic timing. Look at this gorgeous writing by author Shida Bazyar and translator Ruth Martin. Please read it. shorturl.at/P0tz8
