Call for Submissions
The Brooklyn Rail welcomes you to our new web-only section In Translation, where we feature unpublished translations of short fiction, excerpted longer fiction, and excerpted dramatic writing. Launched in April 2007, In Translation will serve as a venue for outstanding literary translation, and we hope that it will become a valuable resource for translators, authors, editors, and publishers seeking to collaborate.
Guidelines:
We seek exceptional unpublished English translations from all languages.
Fiction:
Manuscripts of no longer than 15 pages
(double-spaced)
Plays:
Manuscripts of no longer than 30 pages
(in left-justified script format)
* Translators must hold the necessary rights and permissions for the original work, unless it is in the public domain.
* Please append short (1-2 paragraph) biographies for both translator and original author.
* Translators who wish to have their contact information published with their bio should provide it.
* For excerpts, please also include a brief synopsis of the work as a whole.
Submissions should be e-mailed to intranslation@brooklynrail.org.
