tbqh, I can't remember the last time I read about an "old white man".

I mean, perhaps Tolstoy? But Russian culture is wildly different from American culture, and I find his portrayal of pre-revolution Russian society amazing (or are you one of those "all Caucasians are a monolith with no culture" people?). Other than that, I read about a Chinese young woman, and American professor who dealt with schizophrenia her whole life, a young ambiguously-brown boy in a fantasy world... seriously, there is SO MUCH VARIETY out there.
The "old white men" thing is a fallacy.

it's not always old white men, there's also white boy's coming of age stories (jk)

but you're right, there's a lot variety if you're putting some effort into it. Being able to buy books online doesn't hurt either- there are book publishers who look exclusively for interesting presentation.

This. The English novel was practically invented by women -- Austen, the Brontes, Eliot, Gaskell...
