About this event
Join Bookends for a thought-provoking discussion of Yellowface by R.F. Kuang. This sharp and unsettling novel explores ambition, authorship, cultural identity, and the ethics of who gets to tell certain stories. Through the world of publishing, Yellowface raises uncomfortable questions about privilege, representation, plagiarism, and the pressure to succeed at any cost. We’ll discuss the book’s morally complicated characters, its critique of the literary industry, and how it reflects modern conversations around identity, ownership, and public image. 📍 Location: Bookends, Dubai Silicon Oasis 🕚 Time: 11:00 AM 📅 Date: Saturday, July 11 📖 Book: Yellowface by R.F. Kuang Theme: Ethics in publishing & modern identity
