Isaac Mijares - Translator

Isaac Mijares is someone who believes there's a world inside every person. He's currently a PhD candidate of Comparative Literature at Yale University, a passionate learner and even more passionate writer, though hardly an academic—he prefers the still-inadequate and still-far-from-earned title of "storyteller." Translation to him is a kind of literary alchemy and rhetorical sorcery; an activity that is, at once, genuinely a puzzle and a real act of artistic creation. To him, it's as much about the translation of a story as it is about the story behind a translation.
