Delighted to see some of our titles in @skylightbooks , one of the country’s best indies (the art annex alone can eat up your afternoon). On display near the door was “Taking Up Space: The Black Girl’s Manifesto for Change” @takingupspacebook by @chelseakwakye and @oreogunbiyi , which is published by the very cool #merky books, a new Penguin Random House UK imprint curated by @stormzyofficial Skylight also consistently highlights #booksintranslation . They stock Mexican writer Jorge Ibargüengoitia’s deliciously satiricial 1977 black comedy “The Dead Girls,” reissued by @picadorbooks with an intro by Colm Toibin. Also spotted on the wall: “Nona’s Room,” a prize-winning collection of six uncanny stories from one of the Spain’s finest writers, Cristina Fernández Cubas, put out as part of the Peter Owen World Series. 🖤 #skylightbooks #skylightbookstore #losangeles #bookstoread #bookstoresofinstagram #bookish #shelfie #literatureintranslation #booksonbooks #takingupspacebook #merkybooks @merkybooks @penguinukbooks #thedeadgirls #nonasroom #stormzy #booked #whattoread @americanbooksellers (at Skylight Books) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2xX0ROgrg-/?igshid=1h1x0jsx9w20y
