The procedure of the research were reading both versions of the novel (English and Indonesian), marking the problems, collecting the problems, and analyzing the data focusing on Chesterman’s translation strategies with other supportive theories. This research shows that the most commonly used strategies are cohesion change, unit shift, and transposition. Cohesion change and unit shift can occur from phrase to words or vice versa, but transposition only occurs from word to word.
