Editorial Focus

For over two decades, Two Lines has brought readers the best from translation’s acknowledged masters and world literature’s up-and-comers. Each issue includes writing from around ten different languages and over a dozen countries, plus interviews and essays all about world literature and the art of translation.

Tips From the Editor

Previously unpublished translations only. The author may not also be the translator. Submissions must be accompanied by a copy of the original language text and a brief cover letter.
