I hope you love ramen, because this book talks about it constantly. Modern Romance? More like Modern Ramen! Really mature, I know.

No, it's as fun a read as you could hope for, given that there's actually data and factual stuff to present throughout. Good job, Aziz!

"The best novel, surely, of a writer we love because he makes us question our favorite beliefs. His Aziz, Fielding, Adela, and the Anglo-Indian lot are the superb metaphors in the moral drama as well as people I seem to remember as if I had known and interacted with them."

It's an exciting time for international literature, and the breadth and diversity of these longlists reflect that.

From established authors like Javier Marías to new voices like Basma Abdel Aziz, from works of speculative fiction like Wicked Weeds to family sagas from Senegal like Doomi Golo, there’s something on here for every type of reader.

Founded in 2008 by Three Percent at the University or Rochester, the focus on finding the best books in translation from the past year has been constant.
