Named a Best Book of the Year by Esquire, The Millions, Harper's Bazaar, and BuzzFeed, David Hoon Kim's PARIS IS A PARTY, PARIS IS A GHOST was released this week to a glowing review in the New York Review of Books, who deem it a “ doleful, beautifully written study of the confused yearnings and scars of exile. . . Imperfect and meandering, but full of meticulously rendered thinking, Kim’s telling is a fine way out.” In their review, the Chicago Review of Books calls the novel "remarkable . . . Kim is an excellent sentence-level writer, eschewing both floweriness and over-simplicity. He treads lightly, but there are never any missteps, and his intelligence shines through in the easy flow of his prose.” FSG published the novel August 3, 2021.
