It is remarkable today to think about the legacy of the \u00e9migr\u00e9 publishers, like the Wolffs or Frederick Ungar, who arrived in New York in the early 1940s. Some 80 years later, it feels like we are living in a golden age of literature in translation, and the legacy of these writers, translators, and publishers, who sought to promote world literature and foster international communication, is evident today in the work of publishers, non-profits, and associations, in addition to awards such as the Helen &amp; Kurt Wolff Translator\u2019s Prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In his acceptance speech, Max Lawton spoke about risk, and he thanked his publisher <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#132bea\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.deepvellum.org\/news\/max-lawton-wins-the-helen-amp-kurt-wolff-translators-prize-for-schattenfroh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Deep Vellum Press<\/a><\/mark><\/strong> for taking the risk on a book that the <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#132bea\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goethe.de\/ins\/us\/en\/kul\/kuf\/hkw\/26s.html?fbclid=IwY2xjawSX2xZleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFXcjVGNURFa1FhbmMyemlJc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHooywLVxotEYHpwFNvDSPnDDXXFGc1WS0WNv0ksEzLqb_hCouCRxVbgNfFPO_aem_l4y01OmHDSrvvYOM7cciqQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">jury for the award<\/a><\/mark><\/strong> described as a \u201csprawling, experimental \u2018requiem\u2019 [that] defies classification as it roams across history, religion and mysticism, shifting like shadows.\u201d Such works also require their translators to take risks, and it was fascinating to hear Lawton talk about the process \u2013 and risks \u2013 involved in translating Michael Lentz\u2019s <em>Schattenfroh<\/em>. \u201cMax Lawton&#8217;s fearless rendering,\u201d wrote the jury, \u201cmatches the author&#8217;s inventiveness, polymath expertise, and disregard for orthodoxy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is indeed an exciting time, and the publishing landscape today for literature in translation in North America is rich and comprises both large and (mostly) small presses such as And Other Stories Press, Archipelago Press, Deep Vellum, Farrer, Straus &amp; Giroux, Liveright Publishing, New Directions, New Vessel Press, NYRB Press, Seven Stories Press, Summit Books, The Experiment, Transit Books, Ugly Duckling Presse, World Editions, and many stalwart university presses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Publishing in the US has changed greatly in the past 30-40 years, and awards like the Wolff Prize or the ATA\u2019s Ungar Award reflect these changes, as the number and variety of presses has grown. I remember when translator John Woods \u2013 the first recipient of the Wolff Prize in 1996 \u2013 sat alone atop the \u201cmagic mountain\u201d at Random House. It was a smaller world back then. Nowadays, there is a vibrant community of writers, editors, publishers \u2013 and literary translators \u2013 to connect with through events like these.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Members of ATA\u2019s German Language Division (GLD) and its local chapter, the New York Circle of Translators (NYCT) met up at a Stammtisch on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, in Manhattan.
