(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Kaleidoscope: Selected Poems
by
P. K. Page
Charlotte Smith
, January 02, 2011
In 2010 we lost one of literature's shining lights. P.K. Page's poetry and art may never be known to a wider audience, but those who immerse themselves in her work will treasure it all the more. There is much more work of hers to be revealed, so savour it now and it may feel never ending.

Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic
by
Alison Bechdel
Charlotte Smith
, January 01, 2010
This book is always the first that comes to me when I see or hear something about recommending books to others or about favourite books. With the millions of thoughts swimming through the average reader's head every day, in my opinion it's quite meaningful when one particular book springs frequently to mind. Bechdel's book is one of beauty and eloquence, the perfect treatment of a life that seems at times to be stranger than fiction. I challenge anyone who scoffs at graphic novels as literature to experience Fun Home, and challenge those who harbour no such notions to still do the same.
