Grammar Lessons
My dear friend Michele Morano has an amazing book just out, Grammar Lessons: Translating a Life in Spain. The book is a compilation of thirteen personal (and beautifully crafted) essays, one of which was included in Best American Essays 2006. Her book, Ruth Behar says, “is prose poetry, a traveler’s tale, reflexive ethnography, a meditation on the possibilities of translation, and a gorgeous memoir of a woman’s search for a new language that can help her to know better who she wants to be.” Sounds good, doesn’t it? Incidentally, Michele was chosen, by Time Out Chicago, as one of the twenty people to watch in 2007! To learn more about Michele and her Grammar Lessons, visit her website here——>.
