商品簡介
Noviari Saleh has always known how to be useful: the good daughter, the tireless worker, the careful translator, the woman who says she is fine even when she is disappearing.
When a charming man from Singapore offers her a glimpse of another life, Noviari crosses the border carrying hope, fear, and one dangerous lie: the job is good. But as certainty begins to collapse, she must learn that freedom is not the same as rescue...and that telling the truth may be the first life she truly chooses.
From Johor Bahru to Singapore, Noviari follows the promise of a new job, a rented room, and a life of her own. But when the future she trusted begins to unravel, she discovers that the hardest language to translate is the truth she has hidden from herself.
The Translator's Lie is a tender, quietly suspenseful novel about family, borders, love, work, and the courage it takes for a woman to ask what she wants.
