This #InternationalTranslationDay, why not pop into your local #Library and take out a book translated from another language? There is such a huge variety of translated literature available now - across fiction and non-fiction - that you will be sure to find something you love.

I've done my share of regional radio. Once did 14 interviews in a day as part of a budget announcement. Can confirm they are some of the best, sharpest journalists in the business. Woe betide anyone who goes in expecting a gentle ride.
