Sărbătorim 8 martie așa cum știm noi mai bine: cu lectură. Propunem acum o listă de cărți scrise de femei, numai bune de devorat luna aceasta, pe care o numim simplu: Rebel Reading. Sunt cărți puternice, cu atitudine, care te pun pe gânduri și sunt cărți pe care, credem noi, ar trebui să le citești. Am ales un amestec de ficțiune și non-ficțiune și sperăm că te vor încânta și-ți vor atrage atenția.

How to be both is a novel all about art's versatility. Borrowing from painting's fresco technique to make an original literary double-take, it's a fast-moving genre-bending conversation between forms, times, truths and fictions.

Two tales of love and injustice twist into a singular yarn where time gets timeless, structural gets playful, knowing gets mysterious, fictional gets real - and all life's givens get given a second chance.
