Female versus male writers, 6 – 20.1
1 I won’t succeed, but considering I only read two books by female writers last year, it will be a huge improvement. This aspiration has definitely diversified my reading – and not only in terms of gender. I only think it works for fiction; as for non-fiction, there is a limited number of topics I’m interested in at any given moment, and a gender quota wouldn’t work. In the future, I might ‘impose’ quotas of culture, time/period, theme, genre on my reading.
