one of the most original writers we have today.-Taylor Jenkins Reid on Siren Queen A sumptuous
decadent read.-The New York Times Vo has crafted a retelling that  in many ways  surpasses the
original.-Kirkus Reviews  starred reviewImmigrant. Socialite. Magician. Jordan Baker grows up
in the most rarefied circles of 1920s American society-she has money  education  a killer golf
handicap  and invitations to some of the most exclusive parties of the Jazz Age. She's also
queer and Asian  a Vietnamese adoptee treated as an exotic attraction by her peers  while the
most important doors remain closed to her. But the world is full of wonders: infernal pacts and
dazzling illusions  lost ghosts and elemental mysteries. In all paper is fire  and Jordan can
burn the cut paper heart out of a man. She just has to learn how. Nghi Vo's debut novel  The
Chosen and the Beautiful  reinvents this classic of the American canon as a coming-of-age story
full of magic  mystery  and glittering excess  and introduces a major new literary voice.
