Novel Translation to English

I have a completed novel in Indonesian that I need rendered into clear, natural-sounding English. The manuscript runs roughly standard novel length and contains no regional slang or technical jargon that would require footnotes.

Fluency takes priority over preserving every stylistic quirk, so feel free to rephrase where necessary to keep the narrative smooth for an English-speaking audience. At the same time, several cultural references appear throughout the story; when they surface, please weave in just enough context or subtle adaptation so the meaning lands without breaking the reader’s flow.

Deliverable: the full novel in English, supplied as a clean, well-formatted Word document (or compatible file) ready for copy-editing. I’ll review the first two chapters as an initial milestone to confirm tone and approach before you proceed with the rest. Prompt communication and openness to one revision pass at the end will be appreciated.
