Irene and María

The House welcomed Irene Van de Mheen on 26th June. Irene is a Dutch translator and will be with us until 12th July. Her proposal is to translate Hermano de Hielo (the English translation is called Brother in Ice), by Girona writer Alicia Kopf. For her translation into Dutch, Irene is doubling the challenge, as she has decided to work simultaneously with the both Catalan version and the Spanish version (translated by the author).

 

María Rodrigo, who is studying the Bachelor's Degree in Translation and Intercultural Communication at the Universidad San Jorge, arrived on the same day as Irene. María is doing an internship here at the Casa del Traductor.
