we specialise in literary translation

Our translators are qualified in working from a broad range of languages into English (UK or US standard).

We can arrange sample translations, reader reports in English on a foreign-language title, a full translation of a published work, and much more.

We can even help with incidental translation of official documents and correspondence.

If you don’t see the language that you need here, get in touch, and we will do our best to find the right translator for the job, whatever the language. All of our translators come with excellent references.
