Йелоуфейс by R.F. Kuang
After the sudden death of a talented Asian American writer she envies, an insecure white novelist quietly publishes the deceased woman's unpublished manuscript as her own; what begins as a selfish career move spirals into a web of lies, betrayals, and public outrage. Sharp, darkly comic, and fiercely observant, the book follows the narrator’s moral unraveling and the fallout among friends, editors, and online communities, using the scandal to expose how race, authorship, ambition, and the publishing industry collude to reward appropriation and punish the marginalized.
