Yellowface is a novel that’s partially a thriller (or potentially a spook story?) and mostly about the ins and outs of writing, editing, and publishing. It spends a lot of time discussing the idea of race in writing: who can write particular stories? How does the presentation of the author inform public response? What happens when someone pretends to be something they’re not?
