The roundtable also includes Edward Gauvin, translator of French graphic novels filmscripts; Michael Emmerich, translator of young Japanese writers; and Martha Tennent, who translates Catalan literature.

Sarabianov and N.L. Adaskina, Liubov Popova, translated by Marian Schwartz and published by Harry N. Abrams in 1990.
