Poetic Obituaries: Nora Alleyn, who came to literary translation

as a second career, brought the work of French Canadian writers and poets to an English-language audience. She died Nov. 13 in Montreal at age 77.

A stylish woman who read widely, Alleyn was known among her colleagues for her free spiritedness, both personally and professionally.
