2023 International Booker Prize Winners: Georgi Gospodinov & Angela Rodel
The International Booker is the annual award for the best work of fiction translated into English from another language. With an equal prize to both author and translator, this is the most important prize for translated fiction. The shortlist comprised books from four continents, and two languages – Bulgarian and Catalan – were represented for the first time. Today we welcome this year’s winners, Georgi Gospodinov and his translator Angela Rodel, to discuss Time Shelter with Leïla Slimani, chair of the International Booker Prize 2023 judging panel.
