With the January 2025 issue, World Literature Today is excited to unveil a fresh redesign of the print edition, inside and out. Mauritian writer Ananda Devi, winner of the 2024 Neustadt International Prize for Literature, headlines the cover feature in a special section profiling her life and work. The issue includes additional marquee essays by Margarita Engle on book banning and Eun-Gwi Chung on the poetic prose of 2024 Nobel laureate Han Kang, while the book review section highlights brand-new work by Nobel laureates Olga Tokarczuk, Jon Fosse, and Han Kang as well as Edwidge Danticat, Ibrahim Nasrallah, Chigozie Obioma, Karl Ove Knausgaard, and dozens more.

With more culture, poetry, essays, and interviews throughout, the latest issue of WLT remains your indispensable passport to great reading from across the globe.
