Oh, now I’ve missed the round number of reviews! A little over a year ago, I was celebrating that my translations has been rated as very good 20 times; now we already have 46 ratings – all of them 5 stars. Maybe I should wait for 50 reviews, but there are customers without a Google account who can’t write us a review, and I’d still like to mention what they say about my translations. I’ll translate the reviews written in German and Russian into English:
So, here they are, my translations ranked and rated:

Feedback from Frank Osthoff, www.biskuitrollerückwärts.de:
Thank you very much for the quick translation. Speak enough Russian to enjoy the pun, bravo! As a non-native speaker, I would never dare to do a literary translation. And yes, since we are colleagues, I know very well the joy of a successful translation. I am also pleased that you obviously enjoyed the text itself. If you can interest a Russian publisher, you are welcome to translate the whole book later. :-)

Alexandra has done excellent work for Artguide Editions several times. She loves her work and is very creative when a creative translation is needed. She can also work fast enough to meet urgent deadlines. Our editors (native English speakers) are very satisfied with her work.

We worked with Alex and Pavel because we needed help with the simultaneous translation of a live workshop from German to English. It was a great experience because they were very quick to communicate before and after the project and very flexible as interpreters; they were able to adapt quickly to the changes during our workshop. They were very helpful, not only as simultaneous and whispered interpreters during our meeting, but they also felt part of the team.
*
On behalf of our entire publishing team, I would like to thank Alexander for the quality of the translation and his responsible attitude to his work. We are already working together on the fourth book. Dear Alexandra, it is a pleasure to work with you and I think we will be commissioning many more literary translations into English.
