Translating Myself and Others is a collection of candid and disarmingly personal essays by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Jhumpa Lahiri, who reflects on her emerging identity as a translator as well as a writer in two languages.

It is new because it combines elements of many existing types of writing, yet in the end, fits into none of them. The road Mishima took to salvation is a highly personal one. Yet here, ultimately, one detects the unmistakable tones of a self transcending the particular and attaining to a poetic vision of the universal.

Ésta es una obra inacabada e inacabable: un universo entero en expansión cuya pluralidad—literaria y vital—es infinita. Bernardo Soares, ayudante de tenedor de libros de contabilidad en la ciudad de Lisboa, autor ficticio de este libro, es, según Pessoa, "un semi-heterónimo, porque, no siendo su personalidad la mía, es, no dife­rente de la mía, sino una simple mutilación de ella".
