Thinking about my exchange with @KassabYumna about Australian writers last night - I thought it might be also fun to talk about favourite writers who don't write in English (but who are translated) -- my list follows, but please take this tweet as an invitation to share!

- Roberto Bolaño
- Jenny Hval
- Olga Tokarczuk
- Mo Yan
- Fernando Pessoa
- Ryu Murakami
- Haruki Murakami
- Dorota Masłowska
- Elena Ferrante
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
- Franz Kafka
- Ludmila Petrushevskaya

Looking over my list, it's so incomplete it hurts - it's better described as a list of "translated authors whose books I enjoyed recently and which stuck around in my head."

But they're all great - read read read read
