Overview
Translation is not just about getting the ideas across. It is about doing it in a way that faithfully reflects the author's own style, that catches the subtleties of meaning and cultural context, and that brings to life the universe that gave birth to the work. I therefore work closely with the author to make sure that we agree on the right approach from the start and that the translated work reflects the author's intentions as faithfully as possible.
