Talking of translation awards, one of the finalists in the long form category is Utopia by Ahmed Khaled Towfik. I reviewed the book here, and also interviewed Mr. Towfik for Locus. I’m delighted to report that the interview is now available online at the World SF website. My thanks to Liza and the crew at Locus for giving permission for this, and to Lavie and Charles for their interest in the piece.
