by Leander Stillwell

Babel: An Arcane History is an obscure work by R. F. Kuang, with the filing of language as magic in the era of 19th century England. Set in Oxford’s Babel Institute, Robin, an Oxford scholar gets involved in power, loyalty and colonialism. Kuang skillfully weaves politics, freedom, resourcefulness, rebels and thorough understanding of ethnicity relying on the concept of knowledge and awareness.
