Per les XXSS vaig descobrint més frikis com jo que volen llegir autors de tots els països del món. Hi ha estats on, si no saps anglès, això és impossible, perquè no hi ha res traduït. Tota una odissea #ReadingtheWorld
Enter Ghost. A group of Palestinians (or not) trying to stage Hamlet in Arabic, in Israel. Of roots and origins, oppression and resistance. A lot of meandering, not all of it interesting. #arablit #readingtheworld #Palestine

50. The God of Small Things - Arundhati Roy: The first of three planned books by Indian writers. An interesting novel. One of those books you still find in every 2nd hand bookstore in the world 27 years later. #readingtheworld #india #arundhatiroy
47. Saga: A Novel of Medieval Iceland - Jeff Janoda: 4th and final Icelandic book for Reading the World. A tale of feuding families in the middle ages, based on the Icelandic Sagas. #readingtheworld #iceland #jeffjanoda

41. A Woman in the Crossfire: Diaries of the Syrian Revolution - Samar Yazbek: A 2nd book by Samar Yazbek, this time her published journals over 100 days at the start of the 2011 Syrian uprising. Brave and uncompromising. #readingtheworld #syria #samaryazbek
Latest Reading the World blogpost - Turkey, Rumi and Elif Shafak: worldthereading.blogspot.com/2024/03/turkey… #readingtheworld #turkey #rumi #elifshafak
44. Soviet Milk - Nora Ikstena: After some of the other books I've read this week (see above), this one about living in Lativa under the Soviet occupation is the least traumatic of the lot. #readingtheworld #latvia #noraikstena
38. Planet of Clay - Samar Yazbek: The surreal horror of a child living through the Syrian war. As grim as you would expect it to be. #readingtheworld #syria #samaryazbek
42. First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers - Loung Ung: Working on this project really does bring home what an despicable set of specimens the human race is. Living through the Killing Fields of the Khmer Rouge. #readingtheworld #cambodia #loungung

32. Seven Years in Tibet - Heinrich Harrer: So this one is a cheat for Reading the World challenges. Harrer was Austrian, but spent much of his later life in Liechtenstein. They have few authors in translation. I'll update if I find anyone else. #readingtheworld #liechtenstein
