Babel
Babel
R F Kuang
Your Price* $9.49
Oxford's Royal Institute of Translation runs on silver bars enchanted with the power of lost meaning, and that silver is what keeps the British Empire dominant. Robin Swift, a Chinese orphan raised to serve Babel, eventually has to decide whether to work within the institution or help burn it down. Kuang writes this with fury and precision, and the central argument about language, power, and complicity is genuinely devastating.
