C D Hawke

C. D. Hawke is a translator, editor, and writer of annotated classic literature. Her work focuses on bringing public-domain texts to modern readers with clarity, restraint, and historical care.

She works primarily with nineteenth- and early twentieth-century sources, producing modern English translations, contextual notes, and companion materials designed for both general readers and educators.

Hawke lives and works in the redwoods of Northern California. When she is not immersed in archival texts, she is usually reading, gardening or enjoying a walk in nature.
