INTRODUCTION

A Call from the Dark is written by American writer Adam Deverell who usually gives plots of ordinary life used to illustrate spiritual or moral truths. The novel, A Call from the Dark, vividly represents a bumpy life experience of a 15-year-old girl Stacey, which also shows the author’s yearn for the pure life and sentiment. All in all, it mainly demonstrates the leading character Stacey how to live with her father after her mother’s death. In the translation process, the pages which I translated include three parts: “Making up”, “Running with Wrong Crowd” and “Just friends.”

In the first part, it mainly tells that Stacey wants to do something to retrieving the broken friendship between her and Topps, and subsequently, they become friends again. In addition, Stacey has decided to stay in the store. During her work in the store, she is threatened to do the business of pirated discs.

The second part mainly presents that Stacey decides to do the business of pirated discs for Crass because of the high pressure from life. It also describes Stacey’s first experience of selling the pirated discs in the store.

Finally the third part mainly describes the speeches between Skye and Stacey. Judging from their communication, readers could clarify that the relation between Topps and Stacey is only the one of friend-to-friend, not lover-to-lover.

    Another important part of this paper focuses on resolutions of the problems that arise in the process of the translation frequently and finally gives a summary of the translation,
