It was also named one of the ten best fiction books of the year by Time.[1] Park's second novel, Same Bed Different Dreams, was published by Random House[2] in November 2023. Publishers Weekly named it a Top 10 Book of the Year,[3] and The New York Times said, "It’s a challenging read and yet wonderfully suspenseful, like watching a circus performer juggle a dozen torches…A sprawling, stunning novel.”[4]

Park was a founding editor of the magazine The Believer in 2003, and has been an editor at the Poetry Foundation, as well as the editor of the Village VoiceШаблон:'s Literary Supplement.[1] Beginning in August 2006, soon after he lost his job at the Village Voice, he circulated a PDF-only newsletter called "The New-York Ghost".[5] From 2007 to 2011, he wrote the science-fiction column "Astral Weeks" for the Los Angeles Times.[1] His stories, articles, and humor have appeared in The New Yorker.[6] From 2018 to 2021, he wrote the graphic novel column for the New York Times Book Review.[7]

He earned Amazon a major literary prize while working there.[9] He has written introductions to several books, including Anthony Powell's Afternoon Men,[10] and co-edited three anthologies: Read Hard and Read Harder (both with Heidi Julavits), and Buffalo Noir (with Brigid Hughes).[11] In 2014, it was reported that he had been hired by Penguin Press as executive editor.[9] He has taught in the graduate writing program at Columbia University.[12] He currently teaches at Princeton University.[13]
