A DIGITAL PAMPHLET ON LATVIAN POETRY
We are delighted to present this digital pamphlet on Latvian poetry, produced in partnership with the British Council as part of the London Book Fair 2018 Baltic Market Focus. This is the second pamphlet in the series: you can read our first pamphlet on Estonian poetry online here.
Beneath you can find links to new translations of work by Sergei Timofejev, Baiba Damberg and Anna Auziņa, alongside an interview between British poet Amy Key and Latvian writer, comic and poet Inga Gaile. This digital pamphlet also features workshop notes plus a podcast with Inga Gaile and Mary Jane-Holmes, whose contribution to our online workshop was selected to feature in this pamphlet by Inga Gaile.
