Dear Reader: We are very excited to announce that last week Anne O. Fisher’s translation of Ilya Ilf and Evgeny Petrov’s classic novel, The Little Golden Calf, which we published in 2009, received the 2010 AATSEEL Book Award for Best Translation into English. The annual award, presented by the American Association of Teachers of Slavic and East European Languages, honors the best book-length translation of a literary work from any Slavic Language. This year, eighteen books by over a dozen publishers (most of them very large) vied for the prize. You can read the full text of AATSEEL’s award announcement and our post about this on the Russian Life Blog. And of course you can purchase the book for yourself or any deserving Russophile in our store, through Amazon (and as Kindle Book too), and at fine bookstores nationwide. (You can save 10% if you buy the book in our store this week, just use the discount code OSTAP.) Thanks to all our readers, customers and supporters. Small presses can make a big splash!
