I don't believe there is any fiction by Noe Ito (1885-1923) translated into English, but I wanted to celebrate her legacy during #witmonth anyway. Noe Ito was the second editor of the important women's journal, Bluestocking. 1/3

Banana Yoshimoto (1964- ) is famous for incorporating the kawaii aesthetic, strongly associated with young women, into her work. After many decades, critics no longer lightly dismiss her writing, which unabashedly asserts that great literature doesn’t have to have an unhappy ending. #witmonth
