DEAR READERS,

Thank you for picking up this copy of Absinthe. This is the first issue to appear under the ægis of the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan, which has agreed to publish Absinthe after Dwayne Hayes stepped down as editor-in-chief. We are deeply indebted to Dwayne’s creativity, passion, and sheer determination in founding and maintaining Absinthe for ten years. And we are proud and excited to continue the tradition of bringing you some of the world’s finest contemporary literature in English translation.

I hope you will enjoy reading this issue as much as we enjoyed producing it. Please let us know your thoughts—we can be reached at

In shared love of literature and literary translation,

Silke-Maria Weineck
