Kit Maude is a Spanish-to-English translator.
He received a bachelor’s degree in Comparative American Studies
from the University of Warwick. In 2009 he moved to Buenos Aires
where he currently lives. His translations have been featured
in Granta, the Literary Review,
the Short Story Project, and other
publications.
We met at the Falena bookstore/wine bar in the Chacarita neighbourhood of Buenos Aires to talk literary tourism over a glass. Here's our conversation (the bookstore we reference that was once a performing arts theater, then a cinema, is called El Ateneo Grand Splendid).
