A dark, razor-sharp satire of the publishing industry by R.F. Kuang (The Borough Press / HarperCollins, 323 pages).
Authors Juniper Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars. But Athena is a literary darling with a bestselling novel and a Netflix deal, while June is a nobody. So when June witnesses Athena's death in a freak accident, she steals her just-finished manuscript -- an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers during World War I -- and publishes it as her own.
As the lie spirals, June is forced to confront questions of cultural appropriation, publishing's racial politics, and the lengths she will go to for success.
A USA Today and New York Times bestseller, praised for its biting humor and uncomfortable truths about the literary world.
