Upending our traditionally white-dominated 'to be read' piles, Joan Anim-Addo, Deirdre Osborne and Kadija Sesay push to the fore the voices and cultural perspectives that demand a place on everyone's shelves. From literary giants such as Toni Morrison and Salman Rushdie to recent Man Booker Prize winners Paul Beatty and Bernardine Evaristo, the novels recommended in 'This is the Canon' are books that reflect the diverse experiences of people from around the world, of all backgrounds and all races. They are books that represent voices that have for too long been silenced or side-lined.
