Review Quotes: I have been waiting for this book. Not only does it grapple with one of the most vexing questions in translation studies - what is cultural translation? - but it asks us to imagine new ways to engage with people unlike ourselves in an age where we are defined by the borders we cross. Sarah Maitland recognizes the limits of translation's utopian dream, but she asks us to strive toward that dream nonetheless.
