R.F. Kuang’s work combines history, magic, and classical literary tradition to
render powerful critiques of academia, the publishing industry, and even
contemporary popular culture. Her most recent novel, Katabasis, follows
two graduate students as they descend into hell after the death of
their professor, and the screen rights options to the novel were sold to
Amazon MGM Studios for an upcoming TV series before its publication. To
