Schlegel-Tieck Prize to Jamie Bulloch

Congratulations are due to Jamie Bulloch, who wins this year's Schlegel-Tieck Prize for German-English translation for his version of Birgit Vanderbeke's The Mussel Feast. Jamie, who was commended last year for Richard Weihe's Sea of Ink (both books published by Peirene Press), gets 3000 pounds prize money. The book was also runner-up for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize. In case you're interested, here's my review.

Well done, Jamie!
