First love. Second language. Final goodbyes.

Taipei Story is the new novel by Rebecca F. Kuang, the number one bestselling author of Yellowface and Babel.

Yale student Lily Chen arrives in Taipei hungry: for family, for culture, for connection. But her summer of discovery quickly unravels. Her classes are gruelling, her roommate unbearable, and a reckless, deeply awkward trip to the hot springs with a guy she barely knows soon ignites vicious gossip. Then her grandfather dies. Grieving and adrift, Lily must confront her own questions about the culture she inherited but never fully understood.

Key Highlights Inside:

  • A Coming-of-Age Story: A wryly funny, often devastating search for understanding of herself, her family and the meaning of home.

  • One Unforgettable Summer: Set across the streets, food and family of Taipei.

  • From the Author of Yellowface: For fans of Sally Rooney, Coco Mellors and Patricia Lockwood.
