Deadline: Nominate candidates for NORLA’s Translator's Award 2022 and 2023

NORLA annually hands out an award to a talented emerging translator of Norwegian literature. The award is given for translations directly from Norwegian as an encouragement towards continued efforts.
This year, during our translator’s conference at Kløfta in Norway, we will be handing out TWO awards:

The 2022 award will be given to a translator of non-fiction, and the 2023 award will be given to a translator of fiction.

We would very much like to hear from you about deserving candidates!

Please suggest candidates by March 27, 2023.
