對流──夏菁中英對照詩集

《對流》共分為三輯：第一輯夏菁將自己多年累積的精選中文詩作譯為英文。第二輯夏菁透過自己深厚的東西文學底蘊，將美國四度獲得普立玆獎的大詩人Robert Frost、現代詩先驅並以《查泰萊夫人的情人》聞名於世的D.H. Lawrence、以及英國學者詩人A.E. Housman、和流浪詩人W.H. Davies等的詩作，簡要譯出，介紹給一般讀者。最後一輯由多位當代譯者名家余光中、王季文、馬嵬、及陶忘機（John Balcom）等迻譯夏菁精選詩作。本作為當代中文詩壇少見的文化翻譯工程，全書共計七十三首詩作，中英並行，有人說：「詩是不能翻譯的」，夏菁卻相信譯者只要盡力而為，使譯文盡量接近原作即可。透過中、英詩對照排列，猶如大氣的對流（一個是外來、一個是當地），是否能激起詩天空中的一些火花和回響，就讓讀者拭目以待。<釀出版>
