My name is Adrian Nathan West. If you write to me, you can call me Nate. My book The Aesthetics of Degradation was published in 2016 by Repeater. I am a frequent contributor to the Times Literary Supplement and the Literary Review, mainly reviewing fiction in translation; my essays, short fiction, and translations have also appeared in The Guardian, McSweeney’s, The London Review of Books, 3:AM, and many other journals in print and online. I have translated books from German, Catalan, Spanish, and French, as well as short pieces from Portuguese and Italian, by authors such as Josef Winkler, Pere Gimferrer, and Marianne Fritz, for publishers ranging from MIT to Dorothy Project to New York Review Books. I am also a contributing editor at the online translation journal Asymptote. You can reach me on Twitter (@a_nathanwest) or via the contact form below.
