Women in translation: 5 voices redefining global literature
For a long time, my understanding of literature was confined to reading the 'classics' of the English language, essentially works that belonged to a canon of prestige and authority. But my perception has shifted. The emergence and growing recognition of Indian texts in English translation has broadened the field of what it means to read, to belong, and to access stories. While some thinkers still debate the authenticity of translations, it is a fact that translated works expand accessibility, deepen our understanding of cultures, and create a wider reach for future generations. As August is celebrated globally as the Month for Women in Translation, it is a moment to honour the women who have redefined the craft and its possibilities. Here are five remarkable translators who continue to inspire and influence the literary world: An American translator and painter, Daisy Rockwell is best known for her English rendering of Geetanjali Shree's Tomb of Sand, which won the 2022 International Booker Prize. Rockwell has often spoken about the challenges of translating novels steeped in regional dialects, cultural nuance, and linguistic play. Her choice of title, Tomb of Sand, she once explained, was meant to give readers 'an open door.' That openness defines her work: she allows readers to belong to a story without ever forcing entry. Beyond Tomb of Sand, she has translated major Hindi and Urdu writers, including Upendranath Ashk and Bhisham Sahni, cementing her place as one of the most important bridges between South Asian literature and the world. Lakshmi Holmström was a pioneer in bringing Tamil voices to English readers. Her translation of Bama's Karukku, a landmark autobiographical novel by a Dalit Christian woman, remains a powerful testament to literature as resistance. Holmström's ability to retain the rhythm, idioms, and cultural depth of Tamil speech made her translations both authentic and accessible. She also translated Ashokamitran and other modern Tamil classics, ensuring that Tamil literature gained recognition on international platforms. Her work not only preserved voices from the margins but also reshaped how Indian literature is perceived globally. Jennifer Croft, an American translator, is celebrated for her work with Polish Nobel laureate Olga Tokarczuk. She co-won the 2018 International Booker Prize for Flights, a genre-defying novel of fragments, meditations, and philosophical wanderings. Croft's translation skillfully balanced Tokarczuk's playfulness and complexity with clarity for English readers. She later translated Tokarczuk's The Books of Jacob, as well as works from Spanish and Ukrainian, extending her reach across multiple linguistic traditions. Croft embodies the translator as both interpreter and artist, attuned to rhythm and form as much as meaning. Deborah Smith, a British translator, gained international recognition for introducing South Korean author Han Kang to the English-speaking world. Her translation of The Vegetarian won the 2016 International Booker Prize, propelling Han Kang into global prominence. Smith's work is noted for its lyrical precision and ability to preserve both mystery and clarity in Han Kang's prose. At the same time, her style has sparked debates about the translator's role as co-creator, raising important questions about fidelity, interpretation, and creativity in translation. She has since translated more of Han Kang's work and founded Tilted Axis Press, a publishing house dedicated to translated literature. One of the most compelling contemporary voices in translation, Indian translator Deepa Bhasthi recently brought Banu Mushtaq's The Heart Lamp into English. The novel, which portrays the struggles of a Muslim woman's community in Karnataka, reflects Bhasthi's philosophy of decolonizing language. She has spoken about deliberately avoiding italicized 'foreign' words, instead retaining Kannada expressions in their natural form to preserve linguistic integrity. Her translator's note in the new edition emphasizes why certain words must remain untouched: they carry a cultural and emotional weight that cannot—and should not—be erased. In doing so, Bhasthi asserts translation as an act of both preservation and defiance.
