When Fox is a Thousand
When Fox is a Thousand | Larissa Lai
2 posts | 2 read | 9 to read
When Fox Is a Thousand is a retelling of an old Chinese folktale. In Larissa Lai's novel, a fox spirit comes to haunt Artemis Wong, a young woman living in contemporary Vancouver. The Fox brings with her the history of another haunting, that of the Tang Dynasty poet Yu Hsuan-Chi, who was accused of having murdered the young maid servant who once worked for her. Part history, part fairytale, part urban discontent, this novel cracks open all preconceptions about Asian women, gender, sexuality, family, faith, and the flow of time.

1. I've not had great luck with reading challenges in the past. I try to shoehorn books I've read into fitting prompts after the fact, and it doesn't seem to work. I'm trying again this year, though, armed with my tbr stack in a spreadsheet with all challenges cross linked. What could go wrong? 🤣
2. So far, Im most enjoying the two challenges that are most gamified: #bookspinbingo and the crazy 8s game going on my sff GR group. 👍

TheSpineView Good luck on those challenges! Thanks for playing! 4y
Larkken @TheSpineView it was a great question! I'm liking seeing what challenges work for everyone 👍 4y
