Writer in Residence: Memoir of a Literary Translator
A University of New Orleans Press paperback, published in 2010, and the third memoir in Mark Spitzer's autobiographical series. The book records his time as a literary translator living at Shakespeare & Co. in Paris, a period that involved translation work, the bookstore's cast of regulars, and the usual expatriate entanglements. The UNO Press edition is a slim trade paperback with the straightforward design of a small press that lets the voice do the work. Ideal reader: the reader who thinks the best literary memoirs are the ones that admit the narrator is also a little ridiculous, or the translator who wants company for the long hours between languages.
