Host Joe Williams speaks with Slovak author Jana Bodnárová about her novel, Necklace/Choker, due out from Seagull Books in English translation by Jonathan Gresty. She describes the novel, encompassing Central-Eastern European history in the period 1938-2015, and we enjoy excerpts in original and read in English by Sarah Meyer. The two discuss issues of translation and cultural context, and they consider how the literary scene has developed in Slovakia in recent decades.
