Ep 8 Publishing in Translation
While the success of Vivek Shanbhag’s Ghachar Ghochar might have been a rare phenomenon, the potential readership for translated works from Indian languages into English and other Indian and international languages remains vast yet largely unrealized. In this week’s episode of Publishing Perspectives, Neeta Gupta of Yatra Books is joined by Arunava Sinha, Minakshi Thakur, Kannan Sundaram, and Aditi Maheshwari Goyal to discuss the joys and challenges of publishing in translation. Aditi Maheshwari Goyal heads Copyrights and Translation at Vani Prakashan. Arunava Sinha is a translator and faculty at Ashoka University. Kannan Sundaram is Managing Director and Publisher at Kalachuvadu Publications. Minakshi Thakur is Publisher at Eka, Westland – Amazon India. Neeta Gupta is Publisher at Yatra Books.
