Los fantasmas del Palacio de los Azulejos ~ Ghosts of the Palace of Blue Tiles

Spent this afternoon working on Tameme's second chapbook, the magical poems of Jorge Fernandez Granados, splendidly translated by John Oliver Simon. The title is Los fantasmas del Palacio de los Azulejos ~ Ghosts of the Palace of Blue Tiles. The cover is being designed by Ines Hilde, and features this painting by Mexican artist Elena Climent (another of whose paintings adorns the cover of Mexico: A Traveler's Literary Companion). The annual American Literary Translators Conference is this weekend in Dallas, so I'll have a flyer, and of course, Tameme's other publications. The pub date for the Jorge Fernandez Granados / John Oliver Simon chapbook is January 2008--- just in time for AWP. If you'd like to be notified when it's published, please click here to join Tameme's mailing list. More anon.
