Athena Liu is a literary star. June Hayward is nobody.

When Athena dies in a tragic accident, June steals her unfinished manuscript and publishes it as her own under the ambiguously ethnic name Juniper Song. As questions begin to emerge and evidence threatens her stolen success, June discovers how far she is willing to go to protect the life she believes she deserves.

What happens next is, of course, everyone else’s fault.

An international bestseller of 2023, Yellowface is a sharp, suspenseful, and darkly satirical novel about literary theft, cultural appropriation, race in contemporary publishing, and the hidden mechanics of the book industry. Rebecca F. Kuang examines who gets to tell certain stories and what happens when ambition, identity, and public perception collide.
