A Space for Literary Translators and their Process | The Third Wheel The Third Wheel is a digital publication conceived as a hub for literary translators and literature in translation. Alongside translated poetry and prose, we feature original writing that delves into the translators’ journeys.

We’ve extended the submissions deadline to March 1.
Still plenty of time for you to submit and for us to get our chicks in order (starting a lit mag definitely comes with a learning curve :))

The theme of our first issue is The Exophonic Translator and it will spotlight translators who work from unconventional linguistic backgrounds: multilingual or L2 speakers, heritage learners, and voices pushing against dominant language hierarchies.

The Third Wheel is a new literary magazine, whose mission is to create a dedicated space for literary translators, and to illuminate the art of translation: the invisible struggles, creative battles, and quiet triumphs that shape every text.
