The Stella Prize winners
The Stella Prize is an Australian Literary prize for non-binary and women authors. The prize has been active for over 10 years and includes fiction, poetry and non-fiction. I'm only including the winners in this list but the longlist is always interesting and in recent years includes more and more indigenous voices. https://stella.org.au/past-prize-winners/

Inspired by Maisie Peters' song "History of Man", this list includes novels and nonfiction books that deal in some way with themes surrounding the subjugation of women and misogyny, such as unequal power dynamics in romantic relationships, subversion of stereotypes and societal expectations of motherhood. May prompt female rage.
