    (2016-03-20) Goldstein, Ann, '71; Alfano, Barbara; Anastas, Benjamin
    A public dialogue with Ann Goldstein ’71 about the seductions of Elena Ferrante’s fiction, an absent author, and a patient work of translation that has enthralled readers. BARBARA ALFANO is the author of The Mirage of America in Contemporary Italian Literature and Film (University of Toronto Press, 2013). She joined the faculty of the Isabelle Kaplan Center for Languages and Cultures at Bennington in the fall of 2008. BENJAMIN ANASTAS is the author of the memoir Too Good To Be True (New Harvest, 2012) and three previous novels. He joined the core faculty of Bennington’s low-residency MFA program in 2012 and is also member of the literature faculty. ANN GOLDSTEIN earned a B.A. in literature from Bennington College in 1971. She is an editor and head of the copy department at The New Yorker magazine, and her translations of Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan novel cycle have earned her accolades as a “star Italian translator.” Goldstein is also the editor and translator of The Complete Works of Primo Levi (Liveright/Norton, 2015).
