“With this story of how we betray and are betrayed, by others but especially by ourselves, Che Yeun has given us an unforgettable debut novel, indelible, knowing, powerful, consuming. This marks the start of a major career.”

―Alexander Chee, author of HOW TO WRITE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL NOVEL

 

“An absolutely astonishing debut, a haunting portrait of young lives on the edge of ruin. Che Yeun writes as if her heart were on fire. Tailbone is one of those books I devoured, and that devoured me.”

―Steve Almond, author of ALL THE SECRETS OF THE WORLD

 

“This is incandescent.”

―Publisher’s Weekly, starred review (full review here)
