MANDY WIGHT

Mandy Wight

I graduated from Clare College, Cambridge with a degree in languages and taught German, French and Spanish in comprehensive schools and at the University of Sheffield Modern Languages Teaching Centre.

I’m interested in translating the work of women writing in German and have had translations of the work of Ursula Krechel, Nina Jäckle, Ulrike Edschmid, and Natascha Wodin published in No Man’s Land. In March 2018 I was awarded the Goethe- Institut Award for New Translation for my translation from Juli Zeh’s novel Unterleuten.

I read in English, German, French and Spanish, and write a book blog at www.peakreads.wordpress.com.
