To celebrate the wonderful month of WOM4Nhood, we’re offering you the chance to win a selection of our glorious, colourful female-authored titles.
There is no stylistic logic to this collection – you are as likely to find subtle and nuanced stories that linger on and on as voices that pack an immediate and visceral punch. We’ve got a straight-talking beauty tome and a whole new way of eating to pore over. And settings that range from Uganda and Brittany to bee-hives.

To enter, sign up using the form below. We will email the winner on the 31st October.
Good Luck!

In this last instalment of the Southern Reach Trilogy, the mysteries of Area X may have been solved, but their consequences and implications are no less profound – or terrifying. Read more…
