Recs if you like A Nail, A Rose...

A lot of lesbian longing; think portrait of a lady on fire but set in contemporary London; how the ways we experience the world can be so vastly different, and how kind and curious that can make us if we let it; how where we come from helps us find our home, whether that be in a place or in people; pls comment recommendations if you know any more books or films that explore these themes!

Enjoy my newest lit series, ‘Reading the World’, in an attempt to diversify your own reading and broaden horizons, I have included a mix of genres. Sensitive topics often lie ahead as history, social and political issues are usually the centre of this writing. Enjoy!

Just a literary world tour to experience life, love, hate, and the journey of becoming human in those countries. I tried to choose not only authors from those countries but also stories set in them to enrich the experience of living there. I am forever grateful for any book recommendations from all around the world.
