Praise for Exhibit
“A searing study of art, desire, and bodily and intellectual freedom…Kwon’s sentences are like grenades, carefully wrought and concentrated with meaning.” —Shelf Awareness
“Kwon’s prose is unlike any other, sensuous and sumptuous and yet razor-sharp.” —Electric Literature
“In a hypnotic, sensual stream of consciousness…Kwon explores an intimacy that grows into obsession, revealing insights into the nature of power, sexuality, and free will.” —Bustle
“Muscular and intelligent…A bold, tough novel that invites the viewer’s gaze and stares defiantly back.” —Kirkus
“In prose at once sharp and lush, Kwon crafts a gripping tale of a woman wrestling with the past, while boldly making her own future. A haunting and powerful exploration of art, racism, feminism, and desire, this novel will stay with me a long time.”
—Madeline Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Circe and The Song of Achilles
“Exhibit is sensational – a novel that’s both intimate and operatic, singular and world-encompassing. Kwon’s prose is soulful and piercing, chronicling the many ways we lose and find ourselves, blending love and sex and fables between the infinite folds that encompass desire. Exhibit is entirely captivating, and Kwon is truly masterful; it’s a book for the mind and the heart and the body, an actual tour de force.”
—Bryan Washington, bestselling author of Family Meal and Memorial
“Exhibit is extraordinary: brisk, jolting, brilliant, beautiful, true. A ghost story, a tale of passion, a captivating portrait of how art is made, it turns myths upside down, assumptions inside out, all in the most exquisite prose in the bookstore. Kwon is one of the finest American writers, and her latest is a must for all readers.”
—Andrew Sean Greer, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less is Lost
“I tore through this. Exhibit explores how obliteration can be a kind of rebirth, how the nuances of that are complicated by the constraints of chosen and socially imposed identities. Kwon writes about art and ardor with urgency.”
—Raven Leilani, New York Times bestselling author of Luster
“A rare jewel of a book, at once forceful and unrepentant, delicate and shimmering. R. O. Kwon carves language into a wondrous, jagged thing, revealing facets of desire usually hidden. To read Exhibit is to feel time slow down.”
—C Pam Zhang, bestselling author of How Much of These Hills Is Gold and Land of Milk and Honey
