KATABASIS: R.F. Kuang

KATABASIS

by R.F. Kuang

This latest fantasy from the much-loved author of Babel and Yellowface is an imaginative and absorbing novel about an upside-down world that is all too familiar.​ They say Hell is a place of your own making. Especially when you are in Academia. Alice may have accidentally killed her PhD Advisor, but she still needs to advance to a job, meaning she must go and collect him from Hell. This is a novel of self-discovery; facing your fears and trying to get out of a sunk-cost fallacy.
