What was the original French there?
Tomorrow in Austin, #Texas! Translator @mbs51.bsky.social will read an excerpt of BETWEEN PRISON AND FREEDOM. This newly translated #Memoir chronicles #Journalist Alexander Podrabinek’s recollections of fearlessly opposing the injustices of the #SovietUnion.

What's a dissident to do? Hoping @mbs51.bsky.social can tell me Sept 11 at Elliott Bay, discussing her translation of Russian journalist and human rights activist Alexander Podrabinek's prison diary. #seattlebookevents #booktok #literatureintranslation

Congratulations to Alexander Podrabinek and translator @mbs51.bsky.social on the release of BETWEEN PRISON AND FREEDOM. This #Memoir captures the spirit of the dissident movement and the #Solidarity that kept the resistance moving forward. #Soviet #Russia

Working with the @khoreo.bsky.social team on the production of the audio version of my translation from issue 5.1 (out as a pod soon) has been a dream experience. Talented, refreshingly diverse roster of voice actors, unparalleled attention to detail. Vote for them if you can🖤📚

"Hope is not the same thing as optimism. Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope is not pleasure that things are going well, or willingness to work on what is succeeding, but the ability to work towards something because it is good."
- Václav Havel (my rewording of different translations)
