marta-marta-loranne-vella

The award-winning writer's latest book explores themes of oppression in a patriarchal society If I were to place feminism and LGBTIQ rights within the same sentence, would you be surprised?

Francesco Grech kollox jeħel magħna

Life With No Filters It's a shame I'm not reviewing Francesco Grech's kollox jeħel magħna in Maltese, but not gonna lie - proofing books in Maltese takes me forever and a day, so here goes.I got my first glimpse of kollox jeħel magħna when asked to do a reading at the Studio Solipsis book launch.

Sempreviva Trevor Zahra

Not simply because of the obvious fact that a new collection of Trevor Zahra stories is always cause for joy. But also because of the feel of the book itself.
