"23 Contemporary Writers You Should Have Read by Now" (redux)

I just noticed—though it’s been up for months—that Reader’s Digest has revised and updated the article “23 Contemporary Writers You Should Have Read by Now” that they first ran in 2014. I’m happy (and relieved) that they kept me on the list. The company still wows me, to say the least. Coincidentally, I’ve just started reading Brown Girls, Brownstones by Paule Marshall, who is one of the 23. It’s so beautiful, and I can’t believe it’s taken me my life this far to read it.
