Hello, everyone! I'm an author seeking beta readers for my translated novel, a 300-page espionage thriller in British English with an unconventional, poetic style. Written originally in Polish, I need feedback on language clarity and how the narrative resonates with English-speaking readers. If you're intrigued by a tale of spies, secrets, and time-twisting mysteries, please DM me to read a sample and share your thoughts!

HelloSorry, I didn't write it in the previous post.
I don't make money from writing, so I'm asking for free help. If the end result will be good, I will might publish it.
