What People Are Saying About Our Book Boxes

Our highly acclaimed boxes are beloved by writers and readers alike!

“They’re the only people I think who saw, for example, that it was gonna be Annie Ernaux this year for the Nobel. When they sent out one of her books last year, they had a little note that I reminded them of: “We think she’s going to get the Nobel.” Nobody else called that. Everybody else was focused on, you know, all those men…And that’s what I like about them. I feel I have a less provincial sense of world literature by subscribing to their series.”

- Alexander Chee, Writer

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Boxwalla have completely transformed my reading life with all the amazing authors they choose to feature in their boxes. Without them I probably wouldn’t have picked up writers like Sabahatin Ali, Mehmoud Dowlatabadi, Taeko Kono and now Ginzburg. So thank you, Lavanya and the Drunken Boxwallas”

- Paula, Book reviewer

“Boxwalla does such excellent work”

Trevor, Book reviewer and podcaster

“The Boxwalla is absolutely the best! I consider myself very, very lucky that I randomly stumbled upon them back in 2016”

Erica, Book box subscriber
