@Amaravil -- thanks for the offer. However, I'm not interested in having my book published by anyone but a publisher who has BOTH experience translating books and publishing them in the target market.
I've been down this road before and it never turns out well. My company policy is as follows: Translation licenses are only sold to publishers with an existing book list and a track record in the target country.
Unless you've translated dozens of books before and have an extensive list of notable authors, then the answer is NO.
If you want permission to do it anyway (because of Iran's lackadaisical copyright laws) then, essentially you are asking me for permission to steal from me.
Hey, MJ, instead of breaking into your house to steal your stuff on any random day, I'd like to do it next Thursday 4pm, that cool?
No, it isn't cool.
