    Love to see you recommending Hanna Bervoets! ❤❤
    Really hope more of her work gets translated to English, she really is one of my favourite writers.
    I think in the Netherlands she has really shaken up the old privliged male dominated literary landscape as a queer woman with a love for fandom and pop culture.
    She also wrote a really interesting novel on chronic illness about which she says:
    '‘Stories about illness fascinate me. Most fiction (novels, films) on being Sick follows a clear
    course: the protagonist develops symptoms, weakens, fights for his life and eventually dies, or survives. Such stories are powerful tales on suffering and purpose, but I wondered:
    where’s the fiction on being chronically ill? Stories about patients whose illness won’t defeat
    them, but who will also never be cured. Stories on people with symptoms they’ll suffer from their entire lives. What kind of story can be told about that?"

    Permafrost was written in Catalan, a language spoken in Spain. I read the employees and really liked it and regarding Ghost Wall, even though I’m a huge Sarah Moss fan, it’s the book I’ve read by her I liked the least, I don’t know why, because everyone raves about it

    Very inspiring video, many of these books pique my interest. I would recommend Bear by Marian Engels, a Canadian classic. Beautifully written with very weird parts.

      @hannahmay11 I agree. It's very weird. I needed a few YT videos to convince me to continue reading it. I think the weirdness made a few solid points on appropriation and dominance. Besides, the author uses beautiful sensory language.
