Delia Langenhoven recommends: The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England by Brandon Sanderson. This book was an easy and fun read. A man wakes up in a clearing with no memory of who he is, or how he got there. His only chance of survival is a few pages from a guidebook and recollecting his identity.
On a Woman’s Madness by Astrid Roemer and translated by Lucy Scott. Added to the recently announced Booker Prize longlist, the novel follows the journey of Noenka, a queer black woman who flees to her hometown in Suriname after her abusive husband refuses a divorce.
