Found in Translation International writer's collective in Hamburg: Tomás Cohen (CHI), Annika Dorau (GER), Hugh James (NZ

Writers who have either chosen to live in the out-of-nation zone, or been forced to seek its shelter, need more oxygen than that provided by translations into foreign languages alone. For a full-blooded literary life, such writers need, inter alia, an imaginary library - a context in which their work might be located. Because more often than not, such work floats free in a kind of limbo. The construction of a context - of a literary and theoretical platform, a theoretical raft that might accommodate the dislocated and de-territorialized; the transnational and a-national; cross-cultural and transcultural writers; cosmopolitans, neo-nomads, and literary vagabonds; those who write in "adopted" languages, in newly-acquired languages, in multiple languages, in mother tongues in non-maternal habitats; all those who have voluntarily undergone the process of dispatriation - much work on the construction of such a context remains.
