The Turjuman Award was given for the publication in Portuguese of the book \u2018Eleven planets\u2019 [\u2018Onze Astros,\u2019 in the local title] by Mahmoud Darwish. The translation of the work was made by Michel Sleiman. The trophy was given to the brand\u2019s chief editor, Laura Di Pietro (<em>pictured above<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>This was the first edition in which Tabla participated, submitting two books of poetry and two of prose. \u201cI was very confident about choosing Mahmoud Darwish. I think it made sense, being a Palestinian author and a work of poetry, which is a quintessential and millenary Arab genre. It was a beautiful translation by Michel Sleiman, and the translation work itself was powerful,\u201d she declared to ANBA.<\/p>\n<p>The award is in its fourth year, and it was the first time a Portuguese translation won it. \u201cI found this look at Brazil interesting. This South-South exchange. To award a book translated into our language. It is an award for Brazil and the Portuguese language,\u201d said Pietro.<\/p>\n<p><em>Read also:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/three-brazilian-books-to-reach-arab-readers-by-2022\/\">Three Brazilian books to reach Arab readers by 2022 <\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/brazils-tabla-releases-third-book-by-mahmoud-darwish\/\">Brazil\u2019s Tabla releases third book by Mahmoud Darwish <\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The work \u2018Eleven planets\u2019 was also recommended by the translator for publication. \u201cI think this book was an excellent choice. We were thinking about some works, and he [Michel Sleiman] mentioned \u2018Eleven planets.\u2019 It is an influential book,\u201d said the publisher.<\/p>\n<p>For Laura Di Pietro, the work by the emirate of Sharjah is essential for promoting literature as a whole. \u201cThis encourages not only Arabic translation but the entire chain. They are performing amazing work, influencing the entire world. It is very impressive and true,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n<p>The Turjuman Award promotes Arab literary works worldwide, encouraging international translators and publishers to bring titles by renowned Arab authors to their local audiences.
