“Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.”

Nghi Vo, Hugo Award and Ignyte Award finalist, and the winner of the Crawford Award, brings her talent and prose to Worldbuilders Market with her debut novel, The Chosen and the Beautiful. This highly-acclaimed retelling of The Great Gatsby tells a story placed in the heart of the roaring 20's, from the perspective of a queer vietnamese socialite in a way yet to be experienced. The parties, glitz, and glam of the era, with a little magic thrown in for good measure, produce an evocative rewrite of the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic that brings you along, one jewel-like word at a time.
"The Chosen and the Beautiful is a subversive, sexy, atmospheric, sweltering, gin-soaked, Hell-haunted vision of Gatsby's New York, with prose that will pull you under. I loved it." --Alix E. Harrow, winner of the Hugo Award and author of The Ten Thousand Doors of January
The Chosen and the Beautiful is available now in hardcover format. All proceeds go to Worldbuilders, a geek-centered nonprofit supporting humanitarian efforts worldwide.
