Bushra Rehman is the author of “Roses, In the Mouth of a Lion,” a queer coming-of-age novel set in a 1980s-era Muslim American community. A native of Corona, Queens in New York, Rehman co-edited the anthology “Colonize This! Young Women of Color on Today’s Feminism,” and her previous books include the story collection, “Corona,” and “Marianna’s Beauty Salon,” a book of poems. She responded to The Book Pages about the books and people who made an impact on her.
Q. What do you find the most appealing in a book: the plot, the language, the cover, a recommendation? Do you have any examples? Right now, I’m reading “Nevada” by Imogen Binnie, “No Country Like Home” and “Girls That Never Die” by Safia Elhillo, “Who is Wellness For?” by Fariha Roisin, “Imposter Syndrome” by Patricia Park, “Antiman” by Rajiv Mohabir and “How to Kill Yourself Instead of Your Children” by Quincy Scott Jones.I have an obsession with putting books on hold at the library. It still amazes me that I can, with a little patience, read any book my heart desires.
