A story of power, language, and rebellion. Babel is RF Kuang's most ambitious work: an academic fantasy that burns with rage and beauty. Oxford, 1836. Robin Swift, an orphan from Canton, is taken to England to train in classical languages. His destination: Oxford's Royal Institute of Translation, known as Babel, where magic is channeled through translation and silver. But the more Robin learns, the more he confronts an uncomfortable truth: the power of language is at the service of empire.

Item Details

Description

Babel is a novel that combines erudition and fantasy, a fierce critique of colonialism, institutional racism, and the human cost of knowledge. RF Kuang —author of The Poppy War— constructs a story that is both a tribute to philology and a cry of rebellion. With references to real history, linguistic debates, and an immersive academic setting, this work has been hailed as one of the most important works of contemporary fantasy.

An essential edition for discerning readers, collectors, and novel lovers who aren't afraid to question everything. Babel It is not just read: it is studied, it is discussed, it is felt.
