"Academic/Campus novels (novels set in and around universities) are my favorite genre, so I couldn't wait to get my hands on this one. Set in 1990s New England, this quietly propulsive novel explores an artist coming-of-age as she navigates the grey areas between agency and coercion, desire and power, loyalty and betrayal. Incredible."

"Stupendous debut novel from Chan! Pre-dystopian, rage filling, page turner, striking dangerously close to the present. Hell of a read."
