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.
