• Response to comment<nowiki>: Wikipedia is not a directory, however there is no issue with actors/directors who have their entire filmographies on their pages, or have separate pages for the entire filmography if it particularly extensive. This is not the Yellow Pages, it is the work and pertinent information of the subject. In the interest of presenting a cleaner page, I have divided the list of works by genre.

Antonia Lloyd-Jones (born 1962) is a British translator of Polish literature based in London. She is best known as the long-time translator of Olga Tokarczuk's works in English, including Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead which was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize in 2019. The former co-chair of the Translators Association in the United Kingdom from 2015 to 2017, she is also a mentor for the Emerging Translator Mentorship Programme in the National Centre for Writing and has mentored several young Polish translators.

Biography

Antonia Lloyd-Jones graduated from Oxford after studying Russian and Ancient Greek. After first travelling to Wrocław in 1983 during the period of martial law with a group of friends protesting for a return of the freedom of expression introduced during the Solidarity era, Lloyd-Jones intended to report on the social unrest as a journalist and began learning Polish. While working as the editor of the Polish-language magazine Brytania published by the Foreign Office for ex-pat Poles in Britan, she met author Paweł Huelle at an arts festival in Glasgow after the publication of his first novel in 1987, Weiser Dawidek. The English translation, Who Was David Weiser?, was published by Bloomsbury in 1991. Since 1991, she has published over numerous works of Polish novelists, journalists, essayists, poets, and playwrights. She began translating from Polish full time in 2001.

Lloyd-Jones has frequently discussed challenges of finding publishers willing to take the financial risk of publishing Polish and other "minor" languages compared to more mainstream languages, such as French or Spanish, and lauded the works of small, independent publishers, such as Open Letter Books, that have taken an interest in "commercially unviable" literature.
