Make room on Neglected wife movie - Jumpin at the Bedside (1976)your to-be-read list. On Thursday, PEN America announced its lists of finalists for the 2018 PEN Literary Awards.
Each year, the PEN Literary Awards honors great new literature in fiction and a wide array of non-fiction, including sports writing, science writing, essays, and more. Past winners have included Matthew Desmond's deep dive into eviction practices in the U.S. Evicted and Helen Oyeyemi's fable-inspired short story collection What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours(which was also a MashReads favorite).

Finalists for the 2018 PEN Literary Awards include the late Ursula Le Guin's essay collection No Time To Spare, Carmen Maria Machado's acclaimed short story collection Her Body and Other Parties, which was also a finalist in the 2017 National Book Awards, as well as Ta-Nehisi Coates' essay collection We Were Eight Years In Power. If Coates wins, it will mark his second PEN Literary Award, after he won the PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay for his book Between The World And Me in 2015.
These breakout books aren't the only titles that make the 2018 PEN Literary Awards exceptional. This year's finalist list also shines a spotlight on exceptional, diverse authors. In addition to the PEN's annual Open Book Award, which honors books written by authors of color, two other categories are composed entirely of minority authors: for the first time ever the finalist list for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Fiction is composed of all women and the finalist list for the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award is composed entirely of authors of color.
"It is fitting that our Literary Awards this year spotlight five new women's voices in fiction as well as a dazzling diversity of writers for our flagship Stein prize and in other categories," said PEN America Executive Director Suzanne Nossel in a press release. "PEN America's Literary Awards celebrate some of the greatest fruits of free expression—stories that inspire, spark empathy, and change minds. At a time when the fabric of our discourse is being torn by polarization, technological change, and political upheaval, literature has the power to help us see past impasse and imagine a different future."
Check out the finalist list below, and stay tuned for the winners to be revealed on Feb. 20.
