Episode One
Rebecca F Kuang's deliciously dark, witty thriller about jealousy, ambition, white privilege and the slipperiness of truth. Read by Ashleigh Haddad
Yellowface, the bestselling novel by Rebecca F Kuang, is a darkly funny mystery with a deeply flawed narrator. June Hayward is a young white American writer whose promising debut novel is quietly sliding into insignificance. She’s intensely jealous of her friend from Yale Athena Liu, who by contrast has been wildly successful. This novel explores racism and cultural appropriation within a fast paced, sharply satirical thriller.
