Source text - Swedish Istanbul 15 september 2002. Det är den första natten jag sover hemma hos familjen Kaplan. Vi ligger likt ett radband, skavfötters bredvid varandra. Jag, längst ut bredvid storebrodern Ali, 17. På andra sidan ligger pappa Hüseyin, 45, och snarkar. Småbarnen är inbäddade i mitten. Ovanför oss dånar trafiken, det är sensommar och rått i luften. Jag drar filten jag stulit med mig från hotellet över näsan men kylan och den fräna lukten av sopor, urin och matos tränger sig igenom. Och bakom den, lukten av motorväg; avgaser, asfalt, bränt gummi.
Translation - English Istanbul. September 15 2002. This is the first night I sleep at the home of the Kaplan family. We lay beside each other like a rosary, feet next to faces. Me at the end next to big brother Ali, 17. On the other side is dad Hüseyin, 45; snoring. The little ones are tucked into the middle. Above us the booming noise of traffic, it's late summer and the air is raw and damp. I tug the stolen hotel blanket further up over my nose, but the bitter cold and the acrid stench of garbage, urine and greasy food still gets through. Also, beyond that, the highway smell: exhaust fumes, asphalt, burned rubber.

Source text - Swedish Jag har under en längre tid umgåtts med --s fantasirika skrivande som vävts fram av magiska miljöer, gränslösa karaktärer och handlingar som oscillerar mellan den mytiska sagostrukturen och vårt upplösta händelseförlopp i en senmodernistisk apokalyptisk verklighet. --s skrivande är prosa med ett lyriskt uppsåt som skrapas fram genom psykologisk friktion och mörk humor, och som är ett skrivande med en djupt säreget och personligt stil.
Translation - English I have for quite some time now had the pleasure to hang around --'s imaginative writing; writing that comes through in magical settings, boundless characters and plots that oscillate between the fairy tale and our dissolving fate in a late modern apocalyptic reality. --'s writing is prose intent on poetry, scraped together from a dark humour and a psychological friction that gives it its profoundly unique and personal style.

Exact, fast and with a high degree of integrity. I have a (Hons) Bachelor's degree in Political Science and English from University College Cork (Ireland) and a Master's degree in English from University of Toronto (Canada). My native language is Swedish and I currently live and work in Stockholm, Sweden, where I translate between English and Swedish. I'm a member of the Swedish Association of Professional Translators. My main areas of specialization are in technical documentation, construction, subtitling, business/communication, fashion, surveys and business/marketing, but I'm also experienced in proofreading and translating IT (general), finance and e-commerce material. I appreciate a challenge in so far as it develops both my personal and my professional abilities. I used to work for one of Sweden's most influential literary magazines - 10TAL Magazine - and was responsible for translating Ramboll Energy's - a global consultancy on the renewable energy market - main website. My translation work has been published in print. I average around 2400-3000 words/day, depending on the content and the timing. If you require an accurate and loyal translator to meet your specific needs, don't hesitate to send an email my way - I'll usually respond within the hour.
