Baroque readings 2018-2019

Baroque was presented in different venues across the world, from Azerbaijan, Austria and Spain to Germany and the US. Michalopoulou’s novel was translated in bits and pieces, chapter by chapter, thanks to the support of her translators. The enthusiasm and perseverance of such translators as Karen Emmerich and Patricia Felisa Barbeito (English), Birgit Hildebrand (German), Merce Guitart (Spanish and Catalan), Rene Bouchet,  Jeanne Roques Tesson, Florence Seropian and Gilles Decorvet (French), Lale Alatli (Turkish), Maurizio de Rosa (Italian), made possible this hybrid of a translation.
