Poetry in Translation from Quebec

Aufgabe 12 features a special section edited by Oana Avasilichioaei of poetry translated from the Quebecois French. Avasilichioaei starts her/his? forward by saying, “What does it matter now? What matters now? What is the matter now? What is now’s matter? All possible transversions of Jean-Marc Desgent’s questioning title Qu’importe maintenant? The following work of fourteen writers, presented in American and Canadian English translations from the Quebecois French by twelve translators, are possible responses.”
