I‘m a little in love with this author/human being. Great recommendations here. https://electricliterature.com/pulitzer-finalist-luis-urrea-recommends-five-book...

JanuarieTimewalker13 Sincerely, it‘s unavoidable to read women...there are so many female authors. I‘d say 3/4 of the books I‘ve read thus far this year are by women. I‘m sure if you go back 50 years that wasn‘t the case, but today‘s world shows that tomorrow‘s world will keep getting better for women in all aspects. 6y
JamieArc @JanuarieTimewalker13 Me too. Sometimes I struggle to get in male authors, actually. I just think these are great recommendations. 6y
JanuarieTimewalker13 Ok, I‘ll take a gander!! 6y

JanuarieTimewalker13 Ughhh, men are so astute at promoting men...especially the older generation...but now women are promoting women and we are an undeniable force. We‘ve been thwarted for too long. Oooh, I like that Linda Hogan book!! Thanks for posting this! 6y
batsy Ooh, he recommends May Sarton's Journal of a Solitude! I like him already (and should read his book :) 6y
JamieArc @batsy I had never heard of that book but am completely drawn to it! The tagged book is a great journalistic work on immigration, but he writes beautiful fiction too. The Hummingbird‘s Daughter is a favorite. 6y
JamieArc @JanuarieTimewalker13 The Linda Hogan rec is what pulled me in to this list. I haven‘t read that one, but loved another of hers - Power. 6y
JanuarieTimewalker13 Oooh, good to know! Thank you! 6y
lynneamch Yes, I love this amazing author/human, too. I got to see him speak at the Southern Festival of Books #sfob2018 and look forward to this one inspired by a family gathering of all his relatives honoring his aging older half-brother. 5y
lynneamch I still need to read Hummingbird, am listening to the tagged book and really enjoyed, 5y
