The SoA Advisory Clinic: Found in translation…with Catherine Fuller from the Translators Association

What does the landscape for works in translation look like and what role does the Translators Association play? What of the challenges and what of the campaigns? What do translators need to know and how can the Society of Authors help?

And what of the metaphorical cake?  Senior Contracts Advisor and co-host of the SoA Advisory Clinic Johanna Clarke sits down with co-coordinator of the Translators Association at the Society of Authors, Catherine Fuller, to discuss all this and more.
