omnomicons 's review for:
Yellowface
by R.F. Kuang
I was a big fan of this! I LOVED Babel, so my expectations for my next RF Kuang novel were pretty high. To preface: this is no Babel. However, I thought the plot basis was super interesting and clearly inspired by that interesting Asian-fishing poet that became infamous a few years ago. RF Kuang writes form the point of view of the white woman excellently, deftly revealing the depths to which white people are unconsciously threatened by social justice and diversity movements. I was equal parts disgusted and fascinated with the main characters behavior. The plot was a wee bit over the top at a few points in the novel but overall an excellent read!
