An instant USA Today Bestseller | A LibraryReads Bonus Pick | One of the most anticipated books of Summer, according to The New York Times, USA Today, NPR, Forbes, and many more | With starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and BookList
Doppelgängers, corporate intrigue, heartbreak, betrayal, and the harsh permanence of the border: Sublimation is a thrilling and provocative debut for fans of Severance that asks what you'd sacrifice for a different life from award-winning author Isabel J. Kim.
"A mind bending thriller about personhood, homeland nostalgia, global migration, and all forms of alienation." -R. F. Kuang, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Yellowface
"One of the best debuts of the year." -John Scalzi, New York Times bestselling author of Starter Villain
The border cuts you in two.
When you immigrate, you leave a copy of yourself behind, an instance. One person enters their new country; the other stays trapped at home.
Some instances keep in touch, call each other daily, keep their lives and minds in sync in the hopes of reintegrating and resuming a life as one person. Others, like Soyoung Rose Kang, leave home at ten years old and never speak to their other selves again. Rose, in America, never imagined going back to Korea until her grandfather died and her Korean instance called her home for the funeral.
She doesn't know that Soyoung plans to steal her body and her life.
How far would you go to live the choice you didn't make?
"After Sublimation, the immigrant story will never be the same." -Junot Díaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao

Every Instance of Me Enjoyed this Book
"Sublimation" is an interesting thought experiment about different versions of oneself throughout ones life, with the special focus on immigration. The concept itself is really intriguing and reminded me of the show "Severance". I had high expectations and they were not disappointed! Isabel J. Kim not only writes a compelling plot and characters but a thoughtful piece of literature. While reading, I was sad that it did not come out two years earlier (before I graduated from university) since it would have been great to analyse liguistically but also culturally. There are so many interesting and good things about this book that it is hard to put in words without spoiling the book, so I am going to keep this short: If you have any interest in Science-Fiction and/or immigrant stories, please read this book!
