Yellowface

A razor-sharp, blackly funny and bitingly satirical novel about ambition, appropriation and the publishing industry — from R.F. Kuang, bestselling author of Babel.

Athena Liu is a literary darling. June Hayward is literally nobody. So when June witnesses Athena die in a freak accident, she seizes the chance to remake her own life — by stealing Athena's just-finished manuscript and passing it off as her own. So what if it means adopting a new, racially ambiguous identity? So what if a social-media scandal is brewing that threatens to expose her?

As June's lies mount and her stolen success starts to crumble, the question becomes: how far will she go to keep what she believes she deserves? Provocative, addictive and uncomfortably funny, Yellowface is a sharp skewering of racism, privilege and the stories we tell ourselves.

One hell of a story — it's just not hers to tell.
