They've announced the finalists for the Latvijas Literatūras gada -- the Latvian Literary Awards.
Always interesting to see what the local talent is doing (among the names: Inga Ābele, whose High Tide has been published in English by Open Letter) and also what the top translations into the local language are (a Curzio Malaparte and Josef Škvorecký's The Engineer of Human Souls, among others).
The winners will be announced 24 April.
