Literary Fiction
by R.F. Kuang
When June Hayward witnesses her brilliant, celebrated friend Athena Liu's sudden death, she steals Athena's unpublished manuscript and publishes it as her own. What follows is a biting satire of publishing, cultural appropriation, and social media that spirals into paranoia as June's lies threaten to unravel.
