Miss Herbert by Adam Thirlwell
Travels from Rio de Janeiro to Prague, from Moscow to London, from Trieste to Paris, from Warsaw to New York and on its zigzagging flight, it reinvents our ideas of style, and translation - introducing new theories of jet lag, of the time difference. This novel finds problems with accurate translations, and praises imperfect ones.
Adam Thirlwell was born in 1978. His first novel, Politics, was translated into thirty languages. In 2003, he was chosen as one of Granta's Best British Novelists under forty. He lives in London.
