Students in the spring semester 2014 Translation Techniques course recently published a translation of the novel C'est demain qu'on s’fait la malle by French/Gabonese author Alice Endamne. The English title of the work is Afropean. The following undergraduate students were involved in the translation:

• Victoria Bouillon
• Katherine Kleinberg
• Abigail Dessart
• Emily Bentley
• Sasha Belotserkovskaya
• Michael Siberski
• Emily Schnittman
• Melanie Tano
• Annabelle Davey
• Iris Petschek
• Katherine Brandt
• Cynthia Alvarez

The students worked with Cheryl Toman, associate professor of French, and Endamne in spring semester 2014. During the course, students observed the entire process involved with publishing a book. Afropean, a novel set in 1990s France, addresses the subject of immigration and racism through the main characters of an Afropean family living in the south of France.
