Read your way across the world - and get to know it better. READ THE WORLD recommends the best three books on more than 50 countries, taking readers on a trip through Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. The mix of novels and non-fiction books - both classic and contemporary - goes beyond being merely set on location to reveal something of each country's soul. Whether you're an intrepid traveller or an armchair adventurer, climb aboard for a literary journey to counter different people and places, and learn more about them. Enjoy the trip! This book started out as a feature on the Guardian website, and has been revised and expanded.

Our #ReadingGoal for 2025 over at GatheringBooks is #ReadTheWorld2025. This was inspired by my reading around eight countries in 2024. See here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-qUy - do join us, and feel free to use our widgets. I have a few more in my linked post. Just use the hashtag #ReadTheWorld2025 and tag me. My goal is to read 30 countries across 15 languages.

Larkken Wonderful! I feel like I try this periodically and then find a new country to obsess over every time. It throws me off the overall quest, maybe, but that‘s ok. I‘ve requested something for the Netherlands for #foodandlit, and I‘ll gladly tag this challenge as well after I read it 💙❤️🧡 19h
GatheringBooks @Larkken very strategic, i love it! Happy to have you onboard. My favorite author from the Netherlands is Cees Nooteboom - and fell in love with 18h
