Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What if the greatest love story of your life was the one that brought you back to yourself?Nina has always been good at understanding other people. She notices what changes between one message and the next. She hears what isn't said. She can turn a silence into twelve possible explanations before breakfast.Then she meets Marcos.What begins easily becomes something much harder to name. There is tenderness between them. Desire. Distance. Moments that feel unmistakably like love, followed by others that leave Nina wondering whether she imagined the whole thing.So she begins translating.His messages. His silences. The songs he sends. The things he almost says.And when understanding Marcos becomes a full-time occupation, there is Carlos - endlessly patient, occasionally infuriating, and always available to help Nina make sense of one more impossible conversation.Except somewhere between the questions and the answers, Nina begins to realise that perhaps Marcos was never the only person she was trying to understand.Funny, intimate and psychologically sharp, The Translation Problem is a novel about the stories we tell ourselves about love, the people we cannot quite reach, and what happens when a woman who has spent her life understanding everyone else finally becomes curious about herself.Some people change your life by staying. Others by leaving.
