Issue #3

[COMING END OF APRIL 2026]

Translator Issue #3 brings you long-form journalism, reportage and non-fiction from Korea, South Africa, Greece, China, Italy and beyond - translated into English.

Inside the magazine, you'll find the story of a Korean middle school on the political frontline, a quirky piece on the world of gaming in 1980s Hungary, a fascinating article on the fragile ecology (and mystery) of eels in northern Italy, a reported feature on shamans on the border of China and Vietnam, and a searing investigation into Romania's aesthetic gynaecology industry.

Alongside this, Street Talks from Tehran, Karachi, Kyoto, Gaza and Bangalore give voice to hyperlocal stories as told by those who live there. All illustrated by artists from around the world.

Plus: Abdul Bacet's photo essay on Babur's Gardens in Kabul, an interview with Abeera Kamran and Zeerak Ahmed on digitising the Urdu script, a multilingual crossword, and reviews of Polly Barton's debut novel and Boris Dralyuk's new translation of Alexander Voloshin's migration memoir.

Issue #3 will be released at the end of April 2026. Orders will be shipped from the United Kingdom; postage and tax will be added at checkout where relevant.
