She's brilliant! I read 'Our Share Of Night' during #WITmonth and I think about it almost every day.
I went in completely blind and it blew me away.
Yes, I recall seeing that you'd read it, that prompted me. I read so many great books during #witmonth I ordered a few more from Foundry Editions.
Brandy Sour was excellent, I'm working on the review now.
I loved how the history and people of Cyprus are represented through ritual & recipe.
Mars, a mother, and murder. For lovers of mystery, action, and adventure. books2read.com/u/mK2xgd

Book cover: Days in the Caucasus by Banine. A mainly orange and cream cover showing an artist impression of mountains and Eastern style buildings.
Now reading, an unusual memoir, first published in 1945. Days in the Caucasus by Banine. I had meant to read this during #Witmonth but got distracted by other things. 💙📚
I read some brilliant books in August. Five for #WITMonth and one for #NYRBWomen25.

Book: @vintagebooks.bsky.social Drink: The best martini in Hong Kong (trust me, I’ve done the research) from Argo, ft. Never Never Gin #witmonth
Thank you to whichever #WITmonth reader it was who brought this collection of Latin American horror stories to my attention, Halloween reading sorted. Also, "Kermit the Frog dreams of murder"? How could you not be intrigued?

Haven't read a single page in September, still in #WITMonth recovery mode.
WE DO NOT PART by Han Kang. Translated from the Korean by E. Yaewon and Paige Aniyah Morris. The book is held against a painting depicting a snowy landscape.
My new blog post on WE DO NOT PART by Han Kang - a haunting, dreamlike novel on female friendship, trauma, and genocide...brimming with vivid imagery of snow. Translated by E. Yaewon & Paige Aniyah Morris.

For this year's #WITMonth, Tobias Carroll shares 6 new books by women in translation that you won't want to miss:
True fact. And even though it’s no longer #WITmonth, I promise it’s okay to still read books written and translated by women, especially when they are this good.
ICYMI I finally caught up with my #WITMonth reviews with my first encounter with the work of this celebrated Danish writer.

The August Watchlist by Tobias Carroll Fiction from Mexico and Taiwan, poetry from Chile, and more: Read women in translation all year round with Tobias Carroll’s recommendations
At WWB, reading in translation isn’t something we do only for the 30 days of August—we do it every month, all year. Last week, we published Tobias Carroll’s latest Watchlist featuring all women in translation, so that you can keep the #WITMonth vibe going: wordswithoutborders.org/read/article...
After a break for #WITMonth, I'm back on the road with my chapter-by-chapter look at 'The Tale of Genji'. Today sees the first of two posts on Chapter 13, 'Akashi', with our young friend finding love just down the coast... tonysreadinglist.wordpress.com/2025/09/04/t...

LILI IS CRYING by Hélène Bessette. Translated by Kate Briggs. Published by Fitzcarraldo.
This was such a brilliant novel about a turbulent, complex mother-daughter relationship set in sun-drenched Provence and told in a distinctive prose style. Strong recommend from me. My thoughts are here:

Superbly translated by Kate Briggs. #WITMonth
I did manage to sum up my #WITMonth books before we are too far into September!
7 of my reads for August counted and all were interesting if not ones that would make my top books of the year - with the exception of Just A Little Dinner

A stack of books, purple mums in a basket, a porcelain dog and an orange candle holder on a mantelpiece. The books in the stack are: Les Choses by Georges Perec, Sodome et Gomorrhe by Marcel Proust, We Are All Equally Far From Love by Adania Shibli and The Vegetarian by Han Kang.

Sad as it was to dismantle the #WITmonth display, its replacement is most delicious!

The books I read, reread and finished during August Some great ones for #witmonth and two big fellas that will stick with me for years.
Five books - Elena Knows by Claudia Piñeuro, Free Day by Inés Cagnati, Love at Six Thousand Degrees by Maki Kashmada, Spontaneous Acts by Yoko Tawada and These Festive Nights by Marie-Claire Blais, are spined between Fair by Jen Calleja and Jeanne by Arielle Burgdorf.
Really enjoyed #Witmonth this August. Last book read for @deadinkbooks.bsky.social book club was Jeanne by Arielle Burgdorf, a translator writing about a translator. Lots of interesting observations about language, gender and identity, though plot fell short. A good companion to Fair.
AUGUST 2025 was #WITMonth, and I reached my goal of writing 30 reviews of works translated by, or written by and then translated, from women the world At the end of the celebration I report: 32 (thirty-two) posted, well ahead of my goal. #Booksky
