Presses like Fitcarraldo, Charco, 404 etc. are responsible for introducing me to some of the best reads I've had in recent hears, from authors like Jon Fosse, Olga Tokarczuk, Helen McClory and Selva Almada. I was introduced to the women in translation month through these publishers and it's led to some of the most meaningful reads I've ever had. I therefore have a lot of love for many of these publishers and it's fantastic to see so many of them making such an impact.
