I have between 10 and 50 pages of literary text that must be translated with great care between Arabic and French. This isn’t a straightforward word-for-word job; the imagery, rhythm, and subtle cultural references all need to flow naturally for the new readership while remaining faithful to the author’s intent. Here’s what I’m looking for: • A polished, publication-ready translation delivered in Word or PDF. • Consistent voice and style that preserves metaphors, dialogue tone, and narrative pacing. • Brief translator notes where wordplay or cultural nuance required creative adaptation. Please send a detailed project proposal outlining: • Your approach to literary translation (research methods, handling idioms, revision cycle). • Estimated timeline for the full 10–50-page manuscript. • Relevant samples or links that demonstrate similar work. Native-level command of both Arabic and French and prior experience with novels, short stories, or poetry are strongly preferred.
