Grammy Nomination Audiobook Project

AAA Translation was selected to provide foreign language voice talent (in multiple languages) for a unique audiobook collaboration with St. Louis author Emily Carpenter (author of American Female: A True Tale of Adventure) ; Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum, award-winning recording engineer Carl Nappa and Nelly’s Extreme Institute Studios.

“The book takes place in multiple countries and many languages, and for the audiobook version, pronunciation accuracy was critical,” said Susanne Evens, founder and CEO of AAA Translation.

Author Emily Carpenter and sound engineer Carl Nappa will be submitting the American Female audiobook to the 2017 Grammy Awards, for consideration in the Spoken Word category.

“We are very excited to begin our Grammy nomination campaign and can't thank AAA Translation enough for their hard work and contribution,” said Carpenter.

American Female is "The Devil Wears Prada," meets "Eat, Pray, Love," while "On the Road." Middle-class, mid-career, and Midwestern, twenty-something Emily Carpenter walks into a new job that isn’t middle anything. In only slightly more time than it takes to get a passport, this brave adventuress finds herself thrust into a world of lavish luxury, corporate hijinks, and personal scandal. Jet-setting around the globe with her sociopathic boss, she discovers the line between right and wrong is generally negotiable, and almost always in a language other than English. Forced to her breaking point, Emily has to decide what is more important: her old self-respect or her new career. But first - she’ll have to survive.
