Iain Galbraith wins Stephen Spender Prize 2014 for Translation of Jan Wagner's 'Quince Jelly'

In February an intrepid group in Oxford enjoyed a fascinating hands-on translation masterclass with poets Iain Galbraith and Jan Wagner, focussing on Wagner's 'Quittenpastete' . On November 1 came news that Galbraith's translation (honed, we hope, by all our insights!) has won this year's prestigious Stephen Spender Prize. See the comments and read the poem.
