Izidora Angel works magic with words. Her latest translation from Bulgarian, Rene Karabash’s “She Who Remains” (forthcoming from Sandorf Passage and Peirene Press in early 2026) ensnares you into a contemporary world of ancient patriarchal law and guides you through its perilous territory on an intense journey of identity (trans)formation, family commitment, and love. In this interview, Angel unravels some of the mysteries behind “She Who Remains,” discusses her choices and decisions as a translator, and hints at some of her own creative writing projects.
