What happens to the essence of a story when it is translated from one language into another? Author Laurent Binet is joined by acclaimed translators, Adriana Hunter, and Frank Wynne, who will pit their linguistic skills against each other to prove that every translation is a creative work of merit in its own right. No knowledge of French is needed to enjoy this event. Hosted by Daniel Hahn. Part of Edinburgh International Book Festival
