Talking Translation with Jerry Pinto

Jerry Pinto is a writer based in Mumbai. In 2012, he published his first novel, 'Em and the Big Hoom '(2012). Though a fiction debut, the book straddles between fiction and memoir.

In recent years, Pinto has also emerged as a bilingual translator. His project of translation includes a rich body of texts by those that were historically oppressed, including Daya Pawar’s 'Baluta', (2015) the first Dalit autobiography which was published in Marathi in 1978. In this interview, he talks to Kanika Katyal about his project of translation.
