I translate books from Korean into English. I was shortlisted for and later judged the International Booker Prize. I have thirteen (?) books scheduled to be published over the next three years.
Next up is CAPITALISTS MUST STARVE by Park Seolyeon, for which I am touring the UK later this month.

실례합니다! 제 알파카 화화입니다. 남미 다녀온 친구로부터 분양 받았어요. 심심할 때 브러쉬로 빗어줍니다. 가끔 제 Zoom 배경 화면에 카메오 출연합니다. 사랑스럽고 자랑스러워요. 스테고사우루스도 친구가 필요하지 않을까 조심스레 말씀드려봅니다.
