About this Gig
Your book deserves more than a word-for-word translation.
I translate books and manuscripts between English and Italian, with careful attention to voice, tone, rhythm, dialogue, and natural readability.
I work with fiction, memoir, nonfiction, and other book-length projects, helping authors preserve what makes their writing sound like their own in another language.
Every translation is carefully revised before delivery. My goal is not to rewrite your book, but to produce natural English or Italian while remaining faithful to your meaning, style, and voice.
Working on a full manuscript?
The listed packages are designed for shorter sections and chapters. For longer projects, send me your manuscript word count and preferred timeline, and I can prepare a custom offer.

FAQ
Do you translate full books and manuscripts?
Yes. The listed packages cover shorter sections and chapters. For a full manuscript, send me the total word count and your preferred timeline, and I can prepare a custom offer.
What types of books do you translate?
I work with fiction, memoir, nonfiction, and other book-length projects. If you're unsure whether your project is a good fit, feel free to send me a short description before ordering.
Will you preserve my writing style and voice?
Yes. Preserving the author's voice, tone, rhythm, and meaning is a central part of my approach. The translation should read naturally without unnecessary rewriting of the original.
Can I start with one chapter before committing to a full manuscript?
Yes. You can begin with a section or chapter before deciding whether to continue with the rest of the manuscript.
Do you translate both English to Italian and Italian to English?
Yes. I translate in both directions: English to Italian and Italian to English.
How do you maintain consistency across a full manuscript?
For longer projects, I keep terminology, character voices, tone, and stylistic choices consistent across chapters. We can also structure the manuscript into manageable sections with an agreed schedule.

Ongoing collaborationI had turned to a translation agency in the U.S., but the translation into U.S. English was terrible and the cost was sky-high! Matt proofread the first few pages and personally translated the rest of the chapter. What can I say? He saved me! Obviously, I’ll continue to entrust the rest of the chapters to this talented and honest freelancer.
