The concept of the Selected Twenty was introduced as part of Feminist Book Fortnight (FBF) which first ran in 1984. Every year, twenty books were chosen by an independent panel of booksellers and librarians \u2018which best represent the range and strength of feminist books\u2019 published in a given year (Spare Rib 155: 43). Find out more about the history of the fortnight and the selected twenty here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year The Feminist Bookshop made their own list with some of the books they really wanted to champion. Selecting just twenty titles to highlight was an enormous challenge and their choices were necessarily subjective. You can read about their selection process in the full selected twenty catalogue available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
