About the magazine

Trafika Europe is a literary organization founded in 2014 as an extension of the journal Trafika, dedicated to promoting contemporary European literature in English translation. Its core mission is to foster cross-cultural dialogue by publishing and showcasing writers from across the continent, with a particular emphasis on lesser-known languages and regions. Through its online magazine, anthologies, and public events, Trafika Europe provides a platform for both established and emerging voices, often highlighting works that challenge conventional narratives of European identity.

Editorial focus

Trafika Europe showcases current fiction and poetry in English and English translation from across the Council of Europe countries, with its online quarterly digest, and Trafika Europe Radio—Europe’s literary radio station, free online! The hope is to make a meeting point for cultures, provide a forum for showcasing what is exciting in emerging voices across the continent, and explore issues toward a greater sense of belonging and, ultimately, a more shared identity through European literature.
