Join us at Parma for a torna get-together. We'll be celebrating torna's old and new publications and collaborations under Parma's roof.
Below are some of the highlights:
Max Parnell is currently working on printing the second edition of his novella notes on torna. The new prints (and Max himself) will be at Parma.
notes on torna's Turkish translator Mina Çakmak will also join us.
Keyla Çavdar and Sedef Karayel's book Notes from A Haloed Room was published this summer but we didn't have a chance to show it off in person. We will do so this evening at Parma!
torna mail club's November issue will be ready to share on the day.
We'll be talking about books, words, translations, and publishing. See you there!
