Join us for an evening with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri on translation<\/a> as a creative and political practice: \u201cOnly translations can expand the literary horizon, open doors, and knock down walls,\u201d<\/strong> she claims. After learning Italian, living in Italy for a while, and publishing in Italian, Lahiri has embraced translation as an activity to rethink herself as a person and a writer at a time in which valuing plurilingualism is more pressing than ever.
