In this lavishly illustrated flip volume hardcover, Pulitzer Prize finalist Ed Park presents a new tale of contemporary cosmic horror on one side, with his inspiration from Robert W. Chambers’s horror classic The King in Yellow printed on the other.

Designed and illustrated by Jeff Wong, the award-winning artist of Weird Tales magazine, this objet features a flip volume dual-sided cover, illustrated full-color endpapers, and interior art.

Sid Feelings, a successful children’s entertainer, is trapped in a modern nightmare. She’s canceled when a man with whom she shares a name commits a heinous crime. The trouble is only beginning when she hires a mysterious specialist to salvage what’s left of her career. Pulitzer Prize finalist Ed Park’s “The Repairer of Reputations” offers an all-too-real hellscape at the intersection of slashers and cyberspace.

On the flip side of this gorgeously illustrated volume, Park presents the horror classic that inspired him: Robert W. Chambers’s “The Repairer of Reputations,” the groundbreaking tale of paranoia and obsession that launched The King in Yellow.

Praise for Ed Park

Pulitzer Prize Finalist
Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize
PEN/Hemingway Award Finalist
Time Best Book of the Year
NPR Best Book of the Year
Boston Globe Best Book of the Year

“The James Joyce of Korean American literature, and of our times.”
—Ilyon Woo, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Master Slave Husband Wife

“One of the things that I find consistently astonishing about his work is the way that he’s always exploding lines, exploding genre distinctions, creating a really interesting weave . . . Really smart, really playful.”
—Press Play, KCRW

“Ed Park writes books that are easy to love and hard to define. His writing is hilarious but also serious; chaotic while still cohesive; irreverent and earnest all at once.”
—Shelf Awareness (2025 Best Books of the Year)

“Always witty, sometimes surreal, frequently diving beneath mundane surfaces to mysterious and mesmerizing depths.”
—Chicago Review of Books

“I could not stop reading, thinking, and dreaming about Same Bed Different Dreams . . . A feverish, mind-altering marvel of a book.”
—Hua Hsu, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Stay True

“To speak of Park’s creativity is also to speak of his humanity—empathy is a function of the imagination, of course, and it makes sense that a mind capable of dreaming these worlds and sisterverses would also be able to endow them with spirits as vivid and complex as our own. It’s dazzling, this steady carousel of delight and stunned awe.”
—Kaveh Akbar, New York Times–bestselling author of Martyr!

“I’ll throw my gauntlet down and say that Ed Park is the funniest prose writer in America.”
—LitHub

Ed Park is the author of the novels Same Bed Different Dreams, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, and Personal Days, a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award. His debut story collection, An Oral History of Atlantis, was named a best book of the year by Time, NPR, and the Boston Globe, and his memoir, Three Tenses, is forthcoming this summer. His writing has appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, Harper’s, The Atlantic, McSweeney’s, and elsewhere. He is a founding editor of The Believer and has worked in newspapers and book publishing. Park lives in Manhattan and currently teaches writing at Princeton University. In 2025, he received the Arts and Letters Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the Deborah Pease Prize.

Robert W. Chambers (1865–1933) was the author of over eighty novels and short story collections. Born in Brooklyn, Chambers studied in Paris and Munich before beginning his New York City career as an artist and writer. His fiction has been made into over twenty films and has inspired generations of writers and media creators in multiple genres. He is best known for his 1895 collection The King in Yellow, now a cult classic.

Jeff Wong is an illustrator, graphic designer, and rare book collector. A long-time regular contributor to National Lampoon and Cracked, he has been the Design Director at Weird Tales magazine since 2012. His cover art for Sports Illustrated’s 50th Anniversary Issue depicting the Sistine Chapel ceiling (with sports figures) was shown at the Society of Illustrators and awarded a Gold & Silver Medal by the Society of Publication Designers.
