دانلود رمان Yellowface 2023

In Yellowface by R. F. Kuang, June Hayward, a struggling white novelist, witnesses the sudden death of her former classmate and successful Asian‑American author Athena Liu. After Athena’s death, June takes Athena’s unpublished manuscript — a historical novel about Chinese laborers in World War I — and, believing she can improve it, edits and submits it under a pseudonym, Juniper Song. As Juniper Song, June is rebranded with a racially ambiguous identity, and her book becomes a runaway success.

However, June’s deception soon stirs scandal. Accusations of plagiarism emerge on social media, and June is forced to defend her authorship. Haunted by both Athena’s memory and her own guilt, she spirals into paranoia. When the truth begins to unravel further, June considers writing a confession‑fiction hybrid as a way to control her narrative — all while navigating the cutthroat publishing world and the ethics of identity and appropriation¹.
