The Chosen And The Beautiful by Nghi Vo

Set in the dazzling world of 1920s America, this novel reimagines a classic tale through the eyes of Jordan Baker, a queer, Vietnamese adoptee navigating the opulence and excess of the Jazz Age. As she mingles with the elite, Jordan grapples with her own identity and the magical, otherworldly forces that shape her reality. Amidst the glamour and decadence, she uncovers secrets and desires that challenge the boundaries of love, ambition, and belonging in a society that is both enchanting and unforgiving.
