Description

Athena Liu is a literary star, and June Hayward is literally a nobody.

When Athena is killed in an accident, June steals her unpublished manuscript and publishes it as her own under the ambiguous title “Juniper’s Song.” But when evidence begins to threaten her stolen success, June realizes how far she’s willing to go to hold on to what she believes is rightfully hers.

What happens next is definitely everyone else’s fault.

A 2023 international bestseller, Yellowface is a sharp satire, suspenseful and merciless novel about the appropriation of identity, the problem of race in contemporary literature and the dark side of the book business. It is a story that begs the question: who really has the right to tell these or those stories?
