*Uncertain whether or not this counts. However, since this has at least one essayist not from America, and every essayist is translating/retranslating, and discussing how to translate, interpret and contextualize the work of the ancient Greek poet Sappho (and various other ancient Greeks), I'm adding it in.

Nothing But Reading Challenges
Around the World in 80 Days
Duration: 1/30/2022 - April 20, 2022

Progress: 8 out of 8 (Silver - 4-8 books)

Like Jules Verne's book, for which this challenge was named, you have 80 days with which to complete this challenge. Once you're finished feel free to start it again

This challenge was created to help you expand your reading horizon by encouraging you to read books by authors that do not reside in the country you do.

You are supposed to read books from authors who live in other countries. For instance, Melina Marchetta and Markus Zusak both live in Australia so if you live in the US you could read books by those particular authors. Tana French is from Ireland so she would be another author you could read a book from. J.K. Rowling is from Great Britain so that is another possible author you could read books from. Paulo Coelho,from Brazil, is another author you may wish to read a book from. Kelley Armstrong is from Canada so you may wish to include books she wrote. Stieg Larsson was from Sweden so you may choose to read books by him.

Thanks!

Question: how do you want authors of dual nationality handled?

Specifically, Aliette de Bodard - French or American?
Her Goodreads author page states: "Aliette de Bodard lives and works in Paris."
While Wikipedia says,
"Aliette de Bodard is a French-American speculative fiction writer. She is of French/Vietnamese descent, born in the US, and grew up in Paris. French is her mother-tongue, but she writes in English. A graduate of École Polytechnique..."

Nothing But Reading Challenges
Around the World in 80 Days
Duration: 1/30/2022 - April 20, 2022

Progress: 8 out of 8 (Silver - 4-8 books)

Like Jules Verne's book, for which this challenge was named, you have 80 days with which to complete this challenge. Once you're finished feel free to start it again

This challenge was created to help you expand your reading horizon by encouraging you to read books by authors that do not reside in the country you do.

You are supposed to read books from authors who live in other countries. For instance, Melina Marchetta and Markus Zusak both live in Australia so if you live in the US you could read books by those particular authors. Tana French is from Ireland so she would be another author you could read a book from. J.K. Rowling is from Great Britain so that is another possible author you could read books from. Paulo Coelho,from Brazil, is another author you may wish to read a book from. Kelley Armstrong is from Canada so you may wish to include books she wrote. Stieg Larsson was from Sweden so you may choose to read books by him.
