Me, too. I’m intrigued to “hear� her nonfiction voice.
Me too, I love her work particularly the earlier novels, looking forward to your review.
Finished. 1. Until Thy Wrath be Past by Ã…sa Larsson. Translated from Swedish. Jan 16.
2. On Lighthouses by Jazmina Barrera. Translated from Spanish. Jan 31.
Until Thy Wrath Be Past sounds really good Carol. Happily my library has it so it’s going to be one of my WiT reads. 😊

I've heard really great things about this one Carol, hope it was good.
5. The Summer Book by Tove Jansson, a Swedish-speaking Finn. Translated from Swedish. Finished May 28.

Wasn’t that something? I read it with the Japanese Lit group and the discussion snd debate about the MIL was robust. :)
