About
I grew up surrounded by books, dreaming of working in the world of publishing.
From this dream began my journey through the gears of languages, which led me to literary translation. Since then I have devoted heart and mind to this sublime and mysterious act: trans-ducere, to carry across. Put simply: I’m fascinated by the art of finding the right words.
A passionate Germanist. A love born in school for the English and German Romantics – and, later, for the varied literature of North America – led me to study and live those cultures first-hand. I left part of my heart in Berlin; I live and translate in Turin.
I mainly work on fiction: from children’s literature to graphic novels and psychological thrillers. An omnivorous reader, I enjoy taking on genres that can be very different from one another.
