Women in Translation: What books might the bookclub read next?
Mairi
Every year ahead of our first Women in Translation Bookclub, we go hunting for exciting translated fiction by women writers from around the world.
The book group then chooses where they'd like their books to take them - here are some of the terrific novels that were in the running for the 2022 list, and HERE is where book group is headed this year..
