Today is International Women's Day, and I'm [con]currently reading two books:
1) Faces on the Tip of My Tongue - Emmanuelle Pagano
This has been longlisted for the International Booker Prize. (Published by And Other Stories - a wonderful 'subscription' type publisher, although books and ebooks can be individually purchased.)
Additionally, Peirene Press - another 'subscription' styled publisher (again, books and ebooks can be individually purchased) has a selection of women writers whose books (not ebooks) are 50% off ONLY for today. This is a great publisher. Check them out.
2) The Apple in the Dark - Clarice Lispector
I got this from archive.com and borrowed it and then used K2pdfopt to make it extremely readable on my Kobo Aura One. An entire page fits perfectly within a vertical view; but the horizontal view also works extremely well. I've been heavily into nouveau roman fiction over the years, so Lispector sometimes falls into that designation. (When/if visiting that site, make certain you are following copyright guidelines if you decide to borrow something.)
