Inspired by the Conde Nast Traveler article called "Ambassadors Recommend the One Book to Read Before Visiting Their Country" by Louis Cheslaw.

If you've read the suggested book, it is acceptable to complete the prompt OR select a different book. Your selection should be set in or written by an author from the country to qualify.

I will also add books I suggest to each prompt - this way we can create a collection of favorite books by country over time! I am excited to see your additions. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for countries NOT on this list - I'll add those as bonus prompts when I get them.
