Brisbane Writers Festival presents Rebecca Kuang, Author of Yellowface - SOLD OUT

SOLD OUT

Brisbane Writers Festival is bringing one of the biggest books of 2023 to Brisbane. Taking the literary world by storm, Rebecca F. Kuang’s Yellowface is an absurdist comedy-thriller to die for.

June Hayward is nobody, the author of a blink-and-you-missed-it novel. Athena Liu is a star on the cusp of supernova. So when Athena dies in a freak accident, June does what any envious friend would do in her position — steals the dead woman’s manuscript, passes it off as her own, and reinverts herself as Juniper Song, the ethnically ambiguous toast of the publishing industry.

Outlandish, irreverent and laugh-out-loud funny, Yellowface is a withering pop culture satire, and Rebecca F. Kuang is a startling talent. She’ll be in conversation with the fabulous Mirandi Riwoe for ONE NIGHT ONLY.
