Because we've (and people among themselves) just had such a nice conversation about book that were not originally written in English - here a recommendation thread with thirty (mostly) female authors all over the world.
It was a labor of love two years ago and I'm still 100% behind every rec ⬇️

I love book recommendation lists but they often tend to upset me. My favorite kinds of lists are either international lit (where I am usually upset that there are not enough women represented) or books by non-male folks (where I am upset that it's often mostly English-writing folks).
So - here is a list of my personal recommendations of books by women in (English) translation. One book for every day of June. Feel free to join - does not have to be every day!
