Spied at the delightful Thiemers Magasin bookstore in Copenhagen: cool Danish copies of Human Acts, Normal People, Mouthful of Birds, and Homo Deus 💜 #bookstore #visitcopenhagen #translatedliterature #booksandbao #bookworm #bookish
One of my favourite translated novels of the year so far is a hark back to the gothic writers of old. If you’re a fan of Emily Brontë and Mary Shelley, you’ll get a creepy kick out of this Italian wonder 💜 (Also, that cover is ridiculously, stupidly wonderful) Read my review here: www.booksandbao.com . . . #bookstagram #bookworm #booklover #translatedliterature #booksandbao #italianliterature #gothicliterature
Far beyond being the most beautiful book released in 2019, this novel - translated from French and set in 11th century Japan - has risen to my top ten books I’ve ever read. Honestly, it’s that lovely, that clever, and that spellbinding. Review up next week! Thanks to @maclehosepress #bookstagram #bookworm #currentlyreading #booksandbao #translatedliterature #bookreview

This wonderfully unsettling short story collection from one of South Korea’s most chilling writers is out on April 23rd. My review will be out at the same time. I’m two stories in and there’s a shiver nesting on my spine that won’t go away. I’ve got to live with it now. @openletterbooks #koreanfiction #translatedliterature #currentlyreading #bookstagram #bookworm #booksandbao
Thrilled to have gotten an advanced copy of this little darling. It’s written with so much poise and self-assuredness. And that cover omg 💜 Thanks @picadorbooks #currentlyreading #booksandbao #bookstagram #bookworm
Have you even been to #Oxford if you haven't taken a picture of The Radcliffe Camera? Those moody skies definitely suit the drama. ☔ #booksandbao
Here lies the coolest museum I've been to to date! Nestled within Oxford's National History Museum (just past the statue of Darwin) you can find the Pitt Rivers Museum which houses over 600,000 object, photos, and manuscripts from around the world. Think shrunken heads, noh masks, and ancient wigs. ⁣ ⁣ Being the UK, it's also free to enter which I totally took for granted until I went everywhere else and had to seriously think about which galleries and museums to go to. Sad times. Do you know any other countries that generally don't charge for museums and galleries? #booksandbao
Finally got to visit beautiful #Oxford. I didn't expect the insane amount of Harry Potter themed shops there but aside from that it was everything I expected. Just stunning architecture and awesome bookshops and museums. I definitely need to go back ♥️ #booksandbao
