I‘m case you need to know, The Warwick Prize for Women in Translation longlist has been announced. Loads here I haven‘t heard of. Any thoughts?
I‘ve read Tomb of Sand ❤️, Books of Jacob 📚, and Planet of Clay 😱😭 (worthy of being on the list but I can‘t say I enjoyed it). I think I have the Book of Mother on my Kobo somewhere. Any others I should dive into?

Simona I loved The Book of Mother, but my advice would be to reread The Books of Jacob because it is far better than the rest on the list 😘 1y
julesG I know which one I'm going to add to my TBR. 😁 I might even read it in German![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

Slime: A Natural HistoryBarbaraBB I liked the Book of Mother too as well as Three Summers but both are not really unforgettable if you ask me! 1y

rockpools @Simona 😂😂 That might be a plan! I was going to ask if you wanted to predict a winner from this little lot, but I think I know the answer 😘 1y
rockpools @julesG It absolutely stands out, doesn‘t it? 1y
rockpools @BarbaraBB Hmm. Interesting. Planet of Clay *was* unforgettable, but very very difficult in every which way. I‘ll give Mother a go. 1y
Simona You know that Jacob is the winner 😘 1y
