THREAD 1/14: 365 days. 365 #womenintranslation. Scores of languages and countries. Experiences. Writers as old as literature itself and some whose first works were only recently published. The #DailyWIT is a reading list unlike any other you're likely to encounter this year...

#WITMonth is about reading women in translation, AND about reviews of women in translation (and we love seeing all the WWB contributors reviewed here)!
WorldLiteratureToday@worldlittoday

August is #WITMonth, and we’re kicking off the celebrations with 6 reviews of recent books by women, translated into English, from our July issue. For the month of August, these 6 reviews are available to all to read free of charge! worldliteraturetoday.org/book-review/20…

Kairos by Jenny Erpenbeck is a masterpiece in every way. Stifling at times, so close to the bone I actually cried, linguistically stunning, oppressive, beautiful, political yet incredibly human. Cannot recommend it enough. #WITM @Read_WIT.

Time to come off of social media for a few days I think. Today I shall be continuing my Women in Translation Month efforts by reading Kairos by Jenny Erpenbeck. #WITM @Read_WIT

A real shop favourite, Park Seolyeon’s A MAGICAL GIRL RETIRES (tr: Anton Hur) is an absolute delight! Beautifully illustrated throughout by Kim Sanho, it tackles serious issues such as climate change, debt and suicide whilst also being a fast paced fun adventure! #WITMonth
