Abstract	This paper attempts to show that skopos theory can be applied to literary translation on the example of Nick Hornby's novel, High Fidelity. It consists of a theoretical part that covers the skopos theory and a practical part that analyses translation of the novel. The analysis consists of two parts: translation of culture-specific terms and slang, and translation of figurative expressions (idioms and phrasal verbs). Each of those parts is commented on separately and theoretically explained in short terms. The analysis is based on Mona Baker's strategies for translating culture-specific terms and idioms (Baker, 1992).
