Dominique Fortier: Dominique Fortier is an editor and translator
living in Outremont, Quebec. Her first novel, Good use of stars
(2008), was nominated for a Governor General's Award. She is the
author of five books, two of which have been translated into
English.
Rhonda Mullins: Rhonda Mullins is a writer and translator living in
Montréal. She received the 2015 Governor General's Literary Award
for Twenty-One Cardinals, her translation of Jocelyne Saucier's Les
héritiers de la mine. And the Birds Rained Down, her translation of
Jocelyne Saucier’s Il pleuvait des oiseaux, was a CBC Canada Reads
Selection. It was also shortlisted for the Governor General’s
Literary Award, as were her translations of Élise Turcotte’s Guyana
and Hervé Fischer’s The Decline of the Hollywood Empire.
‘[Fortier’s] sensuous prose, rendered with perfect smoothness by
Mullins, is always a pleasure in itself, and she lets the
historical parallels and affinities… emerge organically. The result
is a seductive love letter to reading, to books, and to the
creative impulse.’
—Montreal Gazette
