I am the translator for your novel "The Sound of Butterflies" in Taiwan. The book just published this month. (I believe you got the news!) Just want to tell you I love this novel a lot, and it is a wonderful experience for me to translate it into complex Chinese (since I'm so into it). Can't wait to read your next.
The Sound of Butterflies was the title of my first novel, published in the UK by Picador, in the US by William Morrow and in New Zealand by Random House, and translated into eight foreign languages. In 2009 my next novel, Magpie Hall, was published in New Zealand by Random House, and in 2012 my first novel for children, Red Rocks. This blog is my thoughts on the world of writing and books.

If I didn't adore you so much, I would, probably hate you.
Meh. Yay and Yay but Meh

What an amazing cover. Stunning.

Thanks for stopping by, Cam, and nice to (virtually) meet a translator!
