(for non-English works you can pick either the translation year or the release year of the original)
2024 (not a particularly exciting year for new releases in my opinion. to be 100% fair, I am yet to read the new ones from Olga Tokarczuk and Murakami who I both adore. also intermezzo. so I may be missing those out. Anyway, I'll go with that one for now): Creation Lake-Rachel Kushner
2023: Yellowface-R.F. Kuang (another not particularly great year to me. Though I also liked Zadie Smith's The Fraud despite it not being well received at all)
2022: Lapvona-Ottessa Moshfegh (now, that was one hell of a year. Honorable Mention: To Paradise-Hanya Yanagihara)
2021: Klara and The Sun-Kazuo Ishiguro
2020: Earthlings-Sayaka Murata
2019: Frankissstein: A Love Story-Jeanette Winterson
2018: Killing Commendatore-Haruki Murakami
2017: 4 3 2 -Paul Auster
2016: Hag-Seed-Margaret Atwood
2015: A Little Life-Hanya Yanagihara (Honorable Mention: The Vegeterian-Han Kang)
2014: The Books of Jacob-Olga Tokarczuk
