Description

NATIONAL BESTSELLERNEW YORK TIMES EDITORS' CHOICE"Hypnotic...a haunting romance about desire, obsession, and ambition that is sure to get your heart rate up." —Time Magazine"R.O. Kwon’s Exhibit is, hands down, the sexiest novel of the year." —Vogue"A highly sensory experience...lingers like a mysterious, multihued bruise." The New York Times"One of the most buzzed-about books of the year…fiery, sexual, and undeniably original." Poets & WritersFrom bestselling author R. O. Kwon, an exhilarating, blazing-hot novel about a woman caught between her desires and her life.At a lavish party in the hills outside of San Francisco, Jin Han meets Lidija Jung and nothing will ever be the same for either woman. A brilliant young photographer, Jin is at a crossroads in her work, in her marriage to her college love Philip, and in who she is and who she wants to be. Lidija is an alluring, injured world-class ballerina on hiatus from her ballet company under mysterious circumstances. Drawn to each other by their intense artistic drives, the two women talk all night.Cracked open, Jin finds herself telling Lidija about an old familial curse, breaking a lifelong promise. She's been told that if she doesn’t keep the curse a secret, she risks losing everything; death and ruin could lie ahead. As Jin and Lidija become more entangled, they realize they share more than the ferocity of their ambition, and begin to explore hidden desires. Something is ignited in Jin: her art, her body, and her sense of self irrevocably changed. But can she avoid the specter of the curse? Vital, bold, powerful, and deeply moving, Exhibit asks: how brightly can you burn before you light your life on fire?
