Based on The Cook and Painting Time, I accepted Mark Haber’s Brazos Bookstore challenge to fit in one more #WITMonth book, this the forthcoming gem from Archipelago Books.
Closing out #WITMonth by listening to Guadalupe Nettel read from and speak about her new novel, Still Born (tr. Rosalind Harvey). Can’t wait to read it! 📖 Thank you BlackwellsManchester & Fitzcarraldo Editions for a great event 💙
This WWll era book, translated by Margot Bettauer Dembo, features the plight of *some* German citizens out of Hitler-run Germany, trying to outrun Hitler's army. Let's just say that Europe wasn't making it easy for them then... A great read for #WITmonth
#womenintranslation NYRB Classics
Translated from Croatian by frcky, Sajko’s Love Novel carries the reader like a kayak on rapids, flung against sentences and scenes that are sharp as rocks. Her stinging chapter endings reminded me of Ariana Harwicz. Read it! V & Q Books #WITMonth Read More Women

Saying goodbye to #WomeninTranslationMonth with Memoirs of a Woman Doctor by Nawal El Saadawi. Translated by Catherine Cobham, published by Saqi Books. The 9th translated book by a woman author I have read in 2022 and like the others, excellent. #WITMonth #egyptianfiction #Arabic
