Harris Wins PEN/Heim Translation Fund Grant


Congratulations to alum Elizabeth Harris, whose work-in-progress, a translation of Antonio Tabucchi's novel Tristano Dies, has been awarded a PEN/Heim Translation Fund grant. Her manuscript, soon to be published by Archipelago Books, was selected from 180 applications.

Elizabeth graduated from our program with an MFA in fiction in 1999 and an MFA in translation in 2000. Her translations appear in numerous journals and have been featured twice in Best European Fiction anthologies. Brava, Elizabeth!
