Generations of Love. A post-gay-lib roman à clef: no torment, no drama & a love story to boot. Our hero knows his place in his small Italian town, and it’s right where he is. Who says he has to give something up to be himself? tinyurl.com/wwbbianchi #PitMad #LGBTQ #translation
@AnneMilanoAppel @wwborders Hello, Anna! The Lost Language of Crane Operators is a chapter in Generations of Love! Yes, should have mentioned Matteo's name, but I'm trying to keep to the 280 characters of pitmad!
Generations of Love. A small-town coming-out novel set in Italy & scored to ‘80s pop. A gay hero who keeps family, friends & community intact. No drama. No suffering. Plenty of irony. Generations doesn’t end happily; it ends well. Excerpt in @wwborders #PitMad #LGBTQ #translation

Generations of Love. A gay, post-liberation roman à clef: no torment, no drama, lots of humor & a love story to boot. Our hero knows his place in his small Italian town, and it’s right where he is. Generations doesn’t end happily, but it does end well. #PitMad #gay #translation
Generations of Love. A hero’s journey in a post-liberation #gaylit key: no torment, no drama, a healthy dose of irony. A college student in small-town Italy comes out with ‘80s pop-music as his soundtrack. Generations doesn’t end happily; it ends well. #PitMad #gay #translation

@provenwrite @NOTISnet @wordpressdotcom A study that should have gotten more notice.

If you're looking for guidance/a model contract for #Literary #Translation, the @penamerican Center's is great (pen.org/a-model-contra…), but CEATL's is better, especially on issue of #copyright (ceatl.eu/translators-ri…). #translators
I wish these issues would be discussed openly and seriously at ATA @atanet and at ALTA @LitTranslate. Why so much resistance to aking a firm stand against copyright "rustling"?
.@NOTISnet Because so many just-starting-out translators had questions about copyright & translation yesterday at the conference, here's a little more. The research is 4 years old, but not much has changed: provenwrite.com/articles-inter… #translationDay #translators #Copyright
