I returned from my honeymoon to the most beautiful book mail! 🌞☀️
A History of Women in 101 Objects by @annabellehirsch:
This book offers a fresh perspective on female history, narrating the evolution of women's roles in society through the significance of everyday objects. It sheds light on the often-hidden and undervalued stories of women that have been overshadowed by the narratives of powerful men.
Iced by @streetangelsbooks:
Told in the wake of the crack epidemic, Iced mixes the syncopated language of the streets with poetry from the heart to take the reader deep into the horrifying world of addiction, it's a riveting portrait of the harm America's war on drugs has caused to vulnerable communities.
The Old Woman With The Knife by Gu Byeong-Mo:
A whip-smart, taut and compelling novel about a 60-something female assassin navigating the vulnerabilities posed by her ageing body, and a meditation on loss and loneliness.
Thank you so much to the authors, as well as the team at @canongatebooks for the beautiful post-honeymoon book mail! I can’t wait to get started!
