The proposed material presents a translation of the story “The Artist” from the collection of short stories “The Blue” (2006) by modern British writer Maggie Gee. The author’s novels have been awarded literary prizes and translated into fourteen languages, but are not yet familiar to the Russian-speaking reader. The translation of the story was made by the winner of the international Art & Craft of Translation competition, which was held in 2018 with the support of the Oxford Russian Fund. The text of the translation is accompanied by a brief commentary that provides explanations of historical, cultural, and literary-critical nature.
