RF Kuang (USA): From Yellowface to Katabasis

The #1 New York Times bestselling writer RF Kuang (US) joins us to discuss the imaginative worlds she creates in her blockbuster novels. The viral Yellowface is a biting and propulsive satire of the publishing industry, while the cult hit Babel imagines a wildly counter-historical version of Oxford University. Her latest book Katabasis brings together dark academia and fantasy and is destined to be a classic. Rachael King chats with this literary global sensation.

Presented in partnership with Auckland Writers Festival.
