Yellowface

1 About this book

Yellowface is a 2023 satirical novel written by R. F. Kuang. The book was described as a satire of racial diversity in the publishing industry as well as a metafiction about social media, particularly Twitter. Although Yellowface is written as a stand-alone project, Kuang has not ruled out a possible sequel.

In late 2024, the screen rights options were sold to Lionsgate Television with Karyn Kusama slated to direct and executive produce a potential limited series based upon this novel with Constance Wu, Justine Suzanne Jones, Ben Smith, and Adam Docksey announced as producers.
