What I've read this year


Chernobyl Prayer - Svetlana Alexievich

"Nobody told the stork." An incredible collection of oral histories of Belarussians affected by the Chernobyl disaster. The epilogue is one of the most masterful and souring ends to a book potentially ever.


The Right To Sex - Amia Srinivasan

Interesting collection of essays on feminist discourse. Sometimes rambling, sometimes tedious - but nonetheless important and thought provoking in 21st century feminist critique.


Reservoir Bitches - Dahlia de la Cerda

A fun read. Easy but not light.
