About

Interpret is Scotland's new magazine of international literature: open to anyone, anywhere, in any language.

​

We showcase the best new writers in Scotland alongside poems, stories, and interviews from around the world. Authors featured in Interpret include winners of the International Booker Prize, the UK Gold Medal for Poetry, the US National Book Award, and the Edwin Morgan Poetry Award, Scotland's most prestigious prize for young poets.

 

Publication in multiple languages is key to that work: we always publish in the original and English translation. So far, we've published authors from 50 countries in 35 languages. Although we receive no funding outside our subscribers, all authors published in Interpret are offered payment.

Our latest issue, Interpret 12, features Mia Couto, winner of the Neustadt International Prize for Literature, and Sasha Dugdale, winner of the Forward Prize and former editor of Modern Poetry in Translation. It presents new poetry and prose in Basque, Sanskrit, Romanian, Hiligaynon, Welsh and more.
