Restless Books

Welcome to my reviews of books published by Restless Books, a nonprofit publisher. As a current board member of the organization, I want to emphasize that my reviews are completely voluntary and offer an honest perspective on each book.

For those interested in learning more, I’ve included the publisher’s mission statement below, along with a link to their website, Restless Books:

Restless Books is an independent, nonprofit publisher devoted to championing essential voices from around the world whose stories speak to us across linguistic and cultural borders. We seek extraordinary international literature for adults and young readers that feeds our restlessness: our hunger for new perspectives, passion for other cultures and languages, and eagerness to explore beyond the confines of the familiar. Through cultural programming, we aim to celebrate immigrant writing and bring literature to underserved communities. We believe that immigrant stories are a vital component of our cultural consciousness; they help to ensure awareness of our communities, build empathy for our neighbors, and strengthen our democracy.”
