Book Translation
Long-form book translation between German and English — for both fiction and non-fiction presses across the DACH region, and for individual authors. Book translation is a sustained relationship with a text and an author, and a different kind of work to article translation. Recent translations include Peace or Pacification by Liam Ó Ruairc (German: Nordirland zwischen Krieg und Frieden) and Spirit Structures of Papua New Guinea by Michael Hirschbichler.
For: Anyone with a book-length project who needs a careful translator.
