Sara Baume reads an unpublished essay, 'Wisdom', a warm reflection on life in lockdown. Writer and poet Inga Gaile reads a Latvian translation, which she co-translated with Ilmārs Šlāpins.
For each episode of 'Talking Translations' we have paired a story with a language, and asked the author and translator to read their work aloud. It is our hope to share these stories with listeners around the world, heard in languages where the author may not yet be widely published.
