Best Literary Translations 2025 features poetry and prose originally written in nineteen languages, brought into English by forty-five of the most talented translators working today. The four co-editors chose a long list of finalists from several hundred nominations.

Guest Editor Cristina Rivera Garza selected both contemporary and historical works for this edition. BLT's poems, short stories, essays, and hybrid works were drawn from submissions that spanned dozens of countries and languages. Featuring work from the top literary journals with US-based editors, ranging from ANMLY to World Literature Today, BLT honors some of the excellent literature created by a diverse range of authors and translators. This anthology redefines the canon of global literatures in English translation, showcasing the brave and brilliant work of contemporary translators and editors.
