In our paper we discuss the first Italian translation of the French novel En finir avec Eddy Bellegueule (2014), by Édouard Louis. This novel takes place in a French northern region called Picardy and shows the hardship faced by the protagonist, a young homosexual, and his family. The language used reflects the low social status of the characters involved, whereas the translation does not seem to convey this aspect in a satisfactory way: in fact, the target text often standardises vernacular patterns, be they morphological, syntactical or lexical.

Abstract
In our paper we discuss the first Italian translation of the French novel En finir avec Eddy Bellegueule (2014), by Édouard Louis. This novel takes place in a French northern region called Picardy and shows the hardship faced by the protagonist, a young homosexual, and his family. The language used reflects the low social status of the characters involved, whereas the translation does not seem to convey this aspect in a satisfactory way: in fact, the target text often standardises vernacular patterns, be they morphological, syntactical or lexical.
