Hi, Lise. I can heartily endorse Paul's recommendation of the ATA's Slavic 
Languages Division, whose newsletter (the SlavFile) is available online to 
all comers, member or not. Go to www.ata-divisions.org/SLD/slavfile.htm

The SLD's focus is not specifically literary, of course. For that, you might 
want to look at the ATA's Literary Division (www.ata-divisions.org/LD/) 
and/or the American Literary Translators Association 
(www.utdallas.edu/alta/). This year's ALTA
bash was mid-month, but there's always next year...

Best to all
Liv
