Independent culture newsletter

In honour of the votes for women centenary we partnered with The Pool to find the books by women writers from the last years that you felt deserved recognition and celebration. And what a list it is. Merging great books of all genres, fiction and non-fiction, written by women and published in or later, the list is a greatest hits of the last years of literature. A starting point for the greatest bookshelf of all time. Titles will be discussed and celebrated in a special event hosted by The Pool at Hay Festival on Monday 28 May, while the discussion will continue at Hay Festival events in Mexico, Peru, Spain and Colombia throughout the year. Sign up to our newsletter for all the latest news from Hay Festival.
