This study was an analysis of oblique translation strategy found in the novel The
Fault In Our Stars. This aimed to find out the kinds of oblique translation strategy

this study. The results of the analysis showed that the four kinds of oblique
translation strategy were applied in the novel, they were 1) transposition with
40.4%, 2) modulation with 16.8%, 3) equivalence with 15.6%, and 4) adaptation

transposition-equivalence, transposition-adaptation, and modulation-equivalence
found in the analysis about 4%. The shift of word class, shift of point of view,
shift of style in translating idiomatic expressions, and shift of cultural
