It is with great pleasure to announce that by the deadline for submission of the nominations for the “Dragi” award (July 1, 2024), the organizer's editorial office has received a record 43 works translated into the Macedonian language, both in print and in electronic format. There are 40 translators competing for the award, which is more than last year. The books were published by 18 publishing houses or individuals, and translations were made from 18 different languages. Forty foreign authors from all genre categories are included – novels, short stories, children's books, plays. All this testifies to a branched and extensive translation production, but also to a very strong competition.
