<span style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium">Have you seen the recent fascinating and very exhaustive report by the organisation Literature Across Frontiers? It's called "Literary Translation from Arabic into English in the United Kingdom and Ireland, 1990 – 2010" and you can download it from this site: </span><a href="http://lafpublications.org/making-literature-travel/" style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium" target="_blank">http://lafpublications.org/making-literature-travel/</a><span style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium"> Although it's about publications in the UK and Ireland, in practice this includes many joint publications with US publishers, so many US titles are given here in the extensive bibliography.</span><br style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium">
<br style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium"><span style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium">This well-informed blog has regular reviews of Arabic lit in English: </span><a href="http://arablit.wordpress.com/" style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium" target="_blank">http://arablit.wordpress.com/</a><br style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium">
<br style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium"><span style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium">Also, it might be worth getting in touch with the organisation & online literary magazine Words Without Borders as they are about to launch a high school and college education program on international literature in the US</span><br style="font-family:Times;font-size:medium">
