Scottish Universities’ International Summer School (SUISS) is proud to present Seven New Strawberries: seven new translations of Edwin Morgan’s poem ‘Strawberries’ into seven world languages. Together, and with the translators’ accompanying commentaries, they present a remarkable insight into the practice of literary translation and a celebration of one of Scotland’s best-loved poems.

Herschelle John Benjamin, Ting Huang, Russell Jones, Svietoslava Myloradovych, Inbal Saggiv Nakdimon, Petra Pugar & Anna Visser
Celebrate the launch of the anthology with a reading from poet Russell Jones, a Q&A with literary translator and mastermind behind the project Anna Visser, and an open discussion with some of the contributors to the volume.
