Karina Papp

Karina Papp is an author and translator who has lived in Berlin since 2013. In her search for interlingual and politically conscious literary forms, Karina combines writing with translation. She has received several DÜF Radial scholarships for translators and has translated books by Chris Kraus and Joanna Walsh, among others. Following the publication of her debut novel Zungenbrecher in April 2025 by etece buch, she is focusing on translation in 2026. This winter, she is working as a co-translator on the essay collection Eure Heimat ist unser Albtraum and applying for grants so that she can continue translating and writing.
