Jade Song’s standalone novels mark her as a writer working at the intersection of literary fiction and darker genres. Chlorine, published in 2023, uses the world of competitive swimming as a backdrop for a story about a young woman’s desire to shed her humanity, and it earned widespread praise for its originality and disturbing power.

Her second novel, I Love You Don’t Die, is set for release in 2026 and promises to continue Song’s exploration of the boundaries between the real and the surreal. Based on her debut, readers can expect prose that is controlled and beautiful even when the subject matter is anything but comfortable.
