Welcome to my website! Currently under construction.

I'm a freelance French-English translator and aspiring writer! The works on this page are a little sparse at the moment, but expect more soon.

About Me

I am a graduate of Brandeis University's French and Comparative Literature programs. I am passionate about bringing foreign literature to English-speaking audiences and strive to create faithful, nuanced translations that capture the essence of the original work. I currently live in Wisconsin with my girlfriend, and my ball python Spud.

Services

I offer translation services for poetry, prose, and other types of literature, as well as other kinds of documentation. Additionally, I am open to editing and writing in English (copy or otherwise.) Please email me at ian@ianirvine.com with offers or for more information. Look around the pages for examples of my work!

Professional Appearances

My professional work has appeared in Heavy Metal #1 (appearing in April) and will be in two Masters theses shortly.
