Over the last two years this is the list of women writers who have appeared in my readings, some of which with more than one work: Maile Meloy : fantasy (and spy) novels for children (but she wrote several adult novels before that). So much for Rowling's publishers who made her change her name. Maybe Americans are more open than the English. Veronica Roth : dystopian science fiction. Hey, we're in science fiction here. The kingdom of men. Divergent has arrived in cinemas. Robert Galbraith (JK Rowling): detective story. There has been some chatter about choosing this male pseudonym, but Rowling has said that she just wanted to start her writing career all over again. So, I ask myself, why choose Robert Galbraith and not Alice Galbraith? Scarlett Thomas : mainstream/unclassifiable genres.
This author is a genius. Read it. I bought all the novels she wrote translated into Italian. I miss the essay on creative writing, which I will take in English. I don't know how to classify those genres. What happened to Mr Y. should be Special Data science fiction, even a bit unusual. He is vaguely reminiscent of The Matrix . The other two I've read are mainstream, I think, but still no women's issues. Ann Leckie : science fiction. The same goes for Roth. I liked the first novel, but not the 2nd at all, but the fact remains that she wrote science fiction. Rachel Joyce : mainstream. I have already marked her other novels on Amazon. The first one I read, The Bizarre Incident of Stolen Time , is a book that has stayed with me. Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings : mainstream/classics. Author I love. You wrote The Puppy and debuted with The Hidden Moon , a beautiful novel about clandestine distillers. Prejudices? Her novels appear on her covers with her full name.
Nahoko Uehashi : fantasy. Ok, the protagonist is, in fact, a female warrior. But I didn't notice any feminine themes. It must also be said that, not knowing Japanese culture at all, that name didn't say anything to me about the author's sex. Lois Lowry : dystopian science fiction. You wrote a beautiful tetralogy, never repeating yourself in the plots. She also ended up at the cinema. Marion Zimmer Bradley : fantasy. You wrote the Avalon series with feminist intentions and it shows. But I really liked The Mists of Avalon anyway and bought the rest of the series. In these ten authors that I have read we can find everything. For me it's enough to say that women don't necessarily write stories for women only.
