OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Join Helen Mitsios in a presentation on her latest anthology in English translation, New Greek Voices: The Best Short Fiction from Greece, a lasting portrait of this generation’s most prominent current fiction writers in Greece. She will be discussing the process of creating and editing these anthologies, her publishing experience in the U.S., and the inherent joys and difficulties of bringing literature into English translation. In addition, she will share her publishing journey which began with a deep interest in Japanese culture and literature that led her to ask Haruki Murakami for his first short story to be published in English translation.
