Dear Mago,
Just want you to know that I’m thinking about you and mother Anne this evening. After a full day of translation work (on classical and jazz musical performances) and an evening of avante-garde film screenings at the Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm, I am too exhausted to say much. Let it be known that I was privileged to read for the first time this evening the published translation of an essay which I wrote last year (for Moma in NY and other American audiences), along with reworked and translated texts that I had previously edited in English on the films of Gunvor Nelson. The ability to preserve or subordinate oneself to what is different and foreign (without falling for the temptation to translate?), is needlesstosay an interesting process.
