I am English and Russian to Polish translator with a master's degree in literary translation and a passionate bibliophile. My affair with literary translation began at a young age when I had just discovered the Harry Potter series. Each book provided a chapter written by the Polish translator that explained the creative origins of all his decisions. It opened my eyes to the magical powers that lay in the hands of translators and made me realize my destiny to become a Wizard of Words too.

Combining my all-round linguistic competences with writing skills, multicultural experience and creativity, I’ve translated some pieces of literature, such as "25 mini-retirements" –a medley of autobiography, travel book and a guide to better living by Polish bestselling author J.B. Bączek, Stageman, 2017.
I have a minor private literary portfolio myself, and I wish to further explore the adventures in translating works of literature, in particular, in English to Polish and viceversa.

My main genre is speculative fiction - fantasy, sci-fi, horror, and all of the sub-genres. Even though my dissertation ("Is Techno Babble Redundant? Translating Specialised Language in Science-Fiction Movies and TV Series in the Light of Relevance Theory and Practical Constraints of Subtitling") concerned AVT mainly, almost half of it spoke of verisimilitude of narratives and the mechanics that allow authors to convince others that what is presented should seem real, at least for a second.

Starting in 1971, I attended the English Philology Institute of the University of Warsaw, Department of Foreign Languages. As I had a few years of experience as a student of theatrical arts in Hungary, I started to translate Polish and English plays and poems into Hungarian, partly on the request of Hungarian theaters. I worked on translations of some of the best known Elizabethan plays, including works of Thomas Dekker, John Fletcher and Francis Beaumont's The Knight of the Burning Pestle.
