Natural Beauty takes you on a chilling journey where you know things won’t end well—but you can’t look away. With themes of beauty, sustainability, music, friendship, and the immigrant experience, it follows a pro musician turned beauty salesperson as she’s pulled into a world that’s as alluring as it is disturbing. Huang’s sharp, unsettling storytelling lingers long after the final page.
