Literary Translation: Translate Your Book in Chinese, and 40+ Languages

One of the more complex fields in our industry involves the translation of books and literary material. 

The most important aims of literary translation are, amongst other things, to:

  • increase the worldwide audience of the literary material.
  • preserve the tone, sensibility, nuances, and overall message of the original material
  • ensure, when dealing with literature and fiction, that the characters do not lose their unique traits and personalities after translation of the content
  • localize irrelevant content where necessary, in order to engage the new-found readership

We can also send out samples of the work to native readers to ensure the work is understood and interpreted the way it was intended.

Plus, before we join you on your literary journey, you may send us a small extract and we will then propose a number of sample translations in various styles written by different resources, so you can select the one that best matches the original work.
