缅北强奸 Alumni Rachel Martinez BA鈥�82 GradDipTranslation鈥�07: The wistful ambassador
笔耻产濒颈茅: 18 April 2013
Rachel Martinez鈥檚 literary translation career started with a bang, in the form of a Governor General鈥檚 Literary Award. While trying to find her niche as a freelancer, she wrote to 脡ditions du Bor茅al offering her services. They declined, citing her lack of experience. A contract for an art catalogue for Les Presses de l鈥橴niversit茅 Laval helped her get her sea legs, and soon Bor茅al was knocking on her door asking whether she could translate Kevin Bazzana鈥檚 Wondrous Strange: The Life and Art of Glenn Gould. They didn鈥檛 need to knock twice.
