Chad Post Honored with Ottaway Award!

Presented annually, the James H. Ottaway, Jr. Award for the Promotion of International Literature aims to recognize “individuals who have taken extraordinary steps to advance literature in translation into English,” and Chad Post of Open Letter Books certainly fits the bill! Post was announced as the winner of the 2018 award in a press release by online literary magazine Words Without Borders on September 5, and the news was highlighted by Publishers Weekly the same day. The award will be presented at the 2018 Words Without Borders Gala on October 30 in New York City. Congratulations, Chad, and thank you for all you do to expand the world of literature in translation!
