Aishwarya talks to Trisha De Niyogi (CEO and Director of Niyogi Books) about the translation movement in India and the appeal of Indian books and stories.
Trisha talks about how translations help us tap into unknown cultures and experience or understand our own culture better. And how some of the most popular books are translations - like the works of Gabriel Garcia Marquez! She explains how Niyogi books market their specialized books like illustrated books or translations to the right audience. She and Aishwarya bond over their love for YA Fiction and a Japanese translation they both happened to read in different languages!
How did translations become popular in India? How does one become a professional translator? And how does hiking help Trisha be a better ‘book person’? Tune in for lots of Indian book recommendations!
