“A funny, biting take down of the racism in the entertainment industry […] both humorous and heartrending” * The Independent *
“A novel that manages the rare feat of being both extravagantly experimental and a lot of fun to read.” * The Times *
“From Paul Beatty’s The Sellout to Brandon Taylor’s Real Life, some of the most talked-about novels from the U.S. in recent years have been male coming-of-age narratives shaped by experiences of racism. Styled as a typewritten television script, [Interior Chinatown is a] zany spin on the genre.” * Daily Mail *
“Wrenching, hilarious, sharp, surreal, and above all, original.” * Emily St John Mandel *
“The novel is grounded by its arch comedy.” * The Telegraph *
“This is a hilarious book. You'll laugh at the universe Charles Yu creates, kitty-corner to our own and just so off-kilter—and then, without warning, you'll be pulled under by the riptide and everything will suddenly make beautiful, perfect, heartbreaking, unexplainable sense.” * Raphael Bob-Waksberg, creator of BoJack Horseman *
"One of the funniest books of the year has arrived, a delicious, ambitious Hollywood satire." * The Washington Post *
"Fresh and beautiful.... Interior Chinatown represents yet another stellar destination in the journey of a sui generis author of seemingly limitless skill and ambition." * The New York Times Book Review *
"Highly inventive and hilarious." (How To Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe) * The Times *
"Brimming with alternative universes, futuristic landscapes and gleeful metaphysics..... Yu's spirit of invention is infectious." (How To Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe) * The Sunday Times *
“An acid indictment of Asian stereotypes and a parable for outcasts feeling invisible in this fast-moving world.” * Kirkus Reviews *
"An immersive but surreal reading experience." * Los Angeles Times *
"Complexity and internality burst the seams of the stock stereotypes the characters are assigned." * TLS *
"Moving and haunting." * The Lonesome Reader *
"Haunting, gorgeous." * The Rumpus *
