We cannot back down
We now confront a second Trump presidency.
There’s not a moment to lose. We must harness our fears, our grief, and yes, our anger, to resist the dangerous policies Donald Trump will unleash on our country. We rededicate ourselves to our role as journalists and writers of principle and conscience.
Today, we also steel ourselves for the fight ahead. It will demand a fearless spirit, an informed mind, wise analysis, and humane resistance.

Fifty years ago, the writer Orhan Pamuk tried to kill the painter Orhan Pamuk. He threw away his watercolors and brushes. He mocked his technique. He declared that Orhan Pamuk would be a novelist and a novelist alone. He lived like this for many years, years in which his success and fame exceeded his wildest dreams.

Why do you think the International Booker Prize matters, and what’s special or unique about it? Over more than 30 years of interviewing the very best international authors, I’ve come to understand the power of translators to open borders of the imagination and to create a worldwide community of readers. Alongside those writers who speak to us of the culture of their homelands, many of the finest voices also come from diasporic experiences, of displacement and exile.
