If LAPVONA by Ottessa Moshfegh ever gets picked up for a movie adaptation, I want Yorgos Lanthimos to direct it. It's such an absurd, bleakly funny book, only he can do it justice.

Nobody else, only him!

They are.

The author of the book below, Begum Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain, is the pioneer in establishing literacy and liberation among Bengali Muslim girls in early 20th century colonial India. Her birthday came to pass some days ago (Dec 9) and she was an AMAZING woman in personal life as well.

This is her.
