About

Meet Alannah

Literary translator. Storyteller. Cultural connector.

I’m Alannah Purslow, a literary translator, public speaker, mentor and founder of Translatome. With years of language study and literary passion behind me, I specialise in translating Spanish and French books into English.

I’m not just here to convert words though. I make it my mission to preserve character, rhythm, voice and culture so your work can travel and resonate with a new audience. I truly respect and understand various genres, their characters and specific narratives. With me, your message won’t just survive translation but thrive in a new world.

A bit about my path

Your book’s
new best friend

Wondering what makes me different? I truly respect the written word. For this reason, I honour creative transparency to ensure the integrity of your work. Not just that but every collaboration is met with kindness and curiosity so that together we can allow your story to travel. Empowering others is part of my mission too. That’s why I also offer mentoring, public speaking and academic proofreading services.
