Books have taken me on thousands of journeys, and books in translation can take us even further afield. The three books reviewed here — a collection of short stories and two novels — offer three very different reading experiences, yet each provides the extreme pleasure of being present in an unfamiliar world. Their distinctive imagery, language and perspectives will linger in a reader’s mind like memorable travel experiences.
