Recently our agency has had several requests for translations of books. It`s important to point out that the algorithm of working with a translator may differ from one author to the next. In one case an author may completely rely on a translator to render the story to another language. In other cases, if the author knows the language well enough, he or she will work together with a translator to achieve a desired effect, to find that perfect phrase and to addresses problematic moments in the text.
The author may want to revise this text several times. Either way an author remains satisfied with the result because, despite the translator`s meticulous work, the text is edited by a native speaker. Neither an author, nor a highly proficient translator, if he is not a native speaker, will ever fully adapt the text for an English-speaking reader.
