Readings in the Shed | Chapter XI: Found in Translation

in collaboration with 

Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan Mumbai

Saturday, May 11th, 6 pm

What happens when stories are faced with the barriers created by language? Can translation help overcome them?

The words which make up a language don’t simply bear a meaning, they also shoulder the legacy of the language. When stories are translated, they become a wonderful amalgamation of the cultures of two different languages.

In May, Readings in the Shed is back at Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan Mumbai with its Chapter XI : Found in Translation. Join us for a dramatic reading of German short stories translated in Hindi, Marathi and English on 11th May at 6:00 pm.
