With Authors, Readers & Other Endangered Species.
Welcome to the Big, Better, Best Books podcast, a different kind of conversation with writers, illustrators, publishers, and book lovers from all around the globe.
True storytelling is an art that refuses to die, a magic that will not be diminished. Every first page is the beginning of something new, a dance between author and reader that has never existed before.
What creates a tale we get lost in? A story that touches us? What is fan fiction and why can't our kids get enough of it? Where is that elusive road to publication? And how do you write a book that changes the world?
Your guide is author, speaker and dreamer – Katarina Wallentin. Come join us!

Tune in to learn what it takes to be a great translator, how translation is a creative process, and why it’s important to understand the energy of the book and the intention of the author.
Key takeaways
You need fluency in both languages and an understanding of the cultural context
Be true to the author and to the audience
A translation isn’t just a commodity, it’s a creation in itself
Listening to the rhythm, the sound, the tone of the text
When it works and doesn’t work: it’s a gut feeling
