"Gatsby the way it should have been written - dark, dazzling, fantastical." (R. F. Kuang)
"Luxurious, thrilling, and sexy." (Adrienne Celt)
Immigrant. 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.

I love The Great Gatsby, so I KNEW the story was right for me.
But Nghi Vo took the story to a whole new level.
I just love her writing. Everything she touches becomes such a magical story.
It's incredible.
Jordan Baker was an amazing character to go on this journey with and to experience the world.
The audiobook narrator did a really great job. I'm totally gonna relisten to this again. But I also want the physical copy.
Just beautiful!!!
