Book excerpt: Drawing from several genres, Translating New York recovers cultural narratives occluded by single linguistic or national literary histories, and proposes that reading these texts through the lens of translation unveils new pathways of cultural circulation and influence. Galasso argues that contact with New York ignited a heightened sensitivity towards language, garnering literary achievement and aesthetic innovation.
