Nicole Ball and her translating partner (and husband) David Ball have signed two book-length translations together, most recently Abdourahman A. Waberi’s In the United States of Africa (University of Nebraska Press, 2009). They have also co-translated half a dozen shorter pieces by Waberi for journals such a Words Without Borders, The Literary Review, AGNI, and Calaloo. Nicole has translated two books from French to English—Maryse Condé’s Land of Many Colors (University of Nebraska Press, 1999) and Catherine Clément’s The Weary Sons of Freud (Verso, 1987)—and a Jonathan Kellerman thriller from English to French: La Sourde (Seuil, 1999.)
