Harris, Will: - Will Harris is a London-based writer and editor. His debut poetry book RENDANG (2020) was a Poetry Book Society Choice, shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize and won the Forward Prize for Best First Collection. His second book of poems, Brother Poem, will be published by Granta in 2023.

Haslam, Delaina: - After studying English, French, and journalism, Delaina Haslam worked in writing and editing roles in Madrid and then London. Missing languages, she retrained and passed the Diploma in Translation. She specialises in sociology and translates for French academic journals. She took part in the British Centre for Literary Translation Summer School in 2016, which led to invaluable collaborations including a series of Poetry Translation Centre workshops on francophone African poets and participation in Newcastle University's Poettrio Experiment. She translated a story by Guatemala's Alan Mills (from Spanish) for the Hay Festival Bogatá 39 anthology, but this collection is her first full literary work. She's interested in collaborative and performative translation, and has written for the Glasgow Review of Books, the Poetry Translation Centre, and Yorkshire Translators and Interpreters. She is also working on a creative nonfiction novel. She lives in Sheffield with her partner and son.

Tengour, Habib: -

Habib Tengour's writing focuses on the Algerian cultural identity and memory as they are being constructed and adapted in the modern conceptions of the Orient and Occident. The poems address experiences of exile and migration. He is considered one of the most forceful and poetic voices to emerge from Northwest Africa in the post-colonial era.

He writes in French but his work is steeped in Algerian culture and tradition. His family moved to France for political reasons when Habib was five years old, and he grew up there in a working-class household. He trained as a sociologist and anthropologist, working and lecturing in both France and Algeria.

Tengour's poetry is said to unite tradition and modernity. His poetry is inspired both by western figures like James Joyce and the surrealists and by pre-Islamic poetry, the Mu'allaka, classic epic lyrical poems about life in the desert, love and religion. He has public more than fifteen books including poetry, essays, and drama, and his work has been translated into several languages, among them English, German, Italian, and Arabic. He himself translates English- and Arabic-language poetry into French.
