In R.O. Kwon’s second novel “Exhibit” (Riverhead Books), the bestselling author of “The Incendiaries” tackles desire and sexuality with compelling and concise prose. Like Kwon, her protagonists are ethnically Korean. “I had the great luck of getting to visit Seoul a couple of times in 2023, both for work and for pleasure,” she said. “It’s the city of my birth, but I haven’t begun to spend as much time there as I’d like. Part of ‘Exhibit’ – toward the end – takes place in Seoul and that section was colored by my travels. It’s an intensely emotional part of the book – someone my narrator loves very much is in desperate peril. I cried a lot while writing it and still can’t read it without tearing up, which also feels colored by Korea.” Based out of San Francisco, Kwon stays in touch with her readers on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/ro.kwon/) and Twitter/X (https://twitter.com/rokwon). You may learn more about her book at ro-kwon.com.
