Lucy Moffatt receives NORLA’s Translator’s Award 2020

NORLA proudly presents a film about Lucy Moffatt, the winner of NORLA's Translator's Award 2020. NORLA's Translator’s Award alternates between fiction and non-fiction, and in 2020 it is going to a translator who has truly excelled herself in the field of non-fiction. The award includes a prize of NOK 20,000 and a stay of up to three weeks in the writer’s flat at the House of Literature in Oslo. This year's award winner has translated a significant number of the most important non-fiction titles in recent years. Lucy Moffatt has in a short time proven to be a dedicated, stylistically-aware and quality-conscious Norwegian translator. She began translating Norwegian as late as 2014, but has clearly managed to distinguish herself already. She is also highly versatile thematically and has dealt with a wide range of subjects, ranging from historical geography, via sexual health, to entomology, climate issues and measures for beating insomnia. Lucy Moffatt has also shown herself to be an outstanding stylist with a thorough understanding of genres. She has worked with a number of exciting voices within non-fiction, many of them distinctive and linguistically challenging. Read more about Lucy Moffatt and the award on our website:
