Great list, Bellezza! I am curious about Sylvia Avallone… and Olga Tokarczuk is one of my favourites, too! 🙂

Juliana, I cannot tell you how much I adored Swimming to Elba by Sylvia Avallone. It ignited a pursuit of the Strega Prize winners, and nominations, not that those are the only good Italian writers. Don’t Move is also quite excellent, written by a woman my own age! 😉 I’m afraid some of the authors I’ve listed are ones people come to expect, but it’s interesting to see our favorites. Xo

Bellezza,
Thanks for this list and for the reminder–I really want to read The Convenience Store Woman. Wonderful post!

You won’t be disappointed, Suko! Not only is it charming, it will make you feel like you are physically in Japan. At least, it did for me. I will never forget seeing the thousands of convenience stores in Japan last October, and learning that they were necessary for the people in such crowded places as Tokyo.

Great to see Tsushima featured here. I loved Territory of Light, a recent read for me. All being well, I’ll be posting something about it for WITMonth.

I liked Territory of Light more after I finished it, than while I was reading it. It was one of those books that caused me to contemplate the character’s life as well as my own, and the decisions/mood/conclusion were all quite wonderful, were they not?
