#BookerInternational #LongList #Readers:
Is all of #TaiwanTravelogue satire using “the propaganda project” the writer initially rejected? The relationship demonstrating the fraternal invitation of Japanese colonial intervention? Who else has read this? I want to discuss 💬
For those who have read #TaiwanTravelogue curious if I'm overthinking or if the perpetual quest for food is more symbolic? Is it really just a woman snacking her way through Taiwan? Or is it a deeper exploration of colonial consumption given the period/setting #BookerInternational #LongList #Booksky
Book cover: Yang Shuang-Zi’s Taiwan Travelogue featuring a window with a bowl 🥣 n it.
Taiwan Travelogue first impressions: so hungry! A Japanese woman looks for great food across Taiwan. #InternationalBooker #LongList
Book Cover for Francis Spufford's Nonesuch. Central to the image is a woman shown from behind, 40's attire, looking out across London. The air and sky a surreal rainbow sherbert color. She is standing in the palm of an enormous stone statue hand.
While I'd like to storm my way through the entire #InternationalBooker #LongList my #library wait has carved out room for this ARC. It's taking off in the most escapist fun way. Reminds me of a grown up version of China Mieville's Un Lun Dun so far, which is high praise. I loved that one. #Booksky
Always an exciting time for #EnglishLiterature enthusiasts!
#WomensPrize for fiction #longlist announced today
Book cover for Shida Bazyar’s The Nights Are Quiet in Tehran. Foreground shows the roof and window arches of a white building with a red room and many chimneys against a blue sky
An incredibly intimate portrait of a family who left Iran during the ‘79 Revolution. The shifting narrative allows for a deeper look at motivations, family dynamics and the tension of waiting for revolution to transform Iran again while living in exile abroad.

Book cover for Shahrnush Parsipur's Women Without Men. A dark haired woman sits center of the frame in a white nightgown plucking her right eyebrow looking right at the reader.
Interesting to read this one directly after On Earth As Beneath. Both isolate groups away from society so readers focus on character & universal traits over action. This one elevates due to the interlocking nature of the vignettes, symbolism & #BookerInternational #LongList #BookSky #TranslatedLit
I can’t wait to listen either, but of course I checked the honor roll first! 😉 #longlist
Book cover for Ana Paula Maia’s On Earth As It Is Beneath. The cover light blue. Symbolic images: 2 black hash marks stand inside 2 white tusks everything restrained by a pink slash.
Reminiscent of ChainGang All Stars & Tender Is the Flesh. Prison and violence stripping humanity away from everyone. A gripping meditation on good and evil. The dystopian, isolated setting allows it to resonate & feel universal. #BookerInternational #LongList #BookSky #TranslatedLit

The screenshot of a list of 23 names titled The 2025 Raven Short Story Contest Longlist. Below the list, in bold black letters the sentence: Congratulations to these authors! On the right side of the list a pencil drawing of a raven in flight.
Last week, @pulpliterature.bsky.social dropped the #RavenShortStory #longlist
Look who's lumped in with such an amazing group of writers! This is so exciting.
The shortlist will drop later this month. I'll see how that goes, but this is encouraging on its own.

Cover of Sin Bin Island by Khadijah Khatib showing Digs, and friends being chased by a fire-breathing Komodo Dragon
I was a huge Red Dwarf fan so very excited to pick up Sin Bin Island by @dougrdnaylor.bsky.social for the @sparkbookaward.bsky.social #LongList. Despite it being on the chunky side, I have raced through it today - a quirky adventure and full of his trademark wit and imagination. #UKKidLit #KidLitUK
