Books that Take Place in Another Country


I'm linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl for another Top Ten Tuesday.

Welp, this is quite a large category. I know I haven't always done a great of diversifying my reads, but I've read books that take place in at least 40 different countries, according to the stats I keep. Here are some of my favorites!


Afghanistan: A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini


China: Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See


Egypt: Woman at Point Zero by Nawal El Saadawi


India: A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth


Ireland: In the Woods by Tana French


Italy: The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco


Norway: Hunger by Knut Hamsun


Russia: The Death of Ivan Ilyich by Leo Tolstoy


Sudan: A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park


Sweden: The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson
