Literary Hub has published a series of 13 reviews highlighting books by trans and queer authors that received no coverage in the New York Times Book Review from 2013 to 2022. The project, titled 'What Was Lost: A Queer Accounting of the NY Times Book Review, 2013-2022,' responds to the editorial tenure of Pamela Paul, who led the section during that period and later wrote an anti-trans essay. Organized by Sandy E. Allen and Maris Kreizman, the initiative aims to address gaps in literary criticism and foster discussion on representation.
Daily Maverick’s book editor-at-large, Joy Watson, has selected four captivating books to help readers unwind as the holidays near. These titles span historical intrigue, personal family reflections, dystopian social experiments, and comedic mysteries, offering immersive escapes from daily routines. Published between April and September 2025, they cater to varied tastes for indulgent year-end reading.
