This collection of short stories centers around characters who are in conflict with their place in the world, often feeling disconnected from both American society and their own families. Yet the stories transcend the simplistic narrative of Asian American struggles with alienation in a foreign land, and the depth of the characters highlights how their experiences of love and envy and loneliness and loss and duty are universal, informed by their heritage but not confined by it. This expanded edition includes an additional short story, a haunting autobiographical essay, an afterword by King-Kok Cheung, and a foreword by Pulitzer Prize winner Viet Thanh Nguyen"-- OP - 277 CN - PS3562.O818 P36 2019 SN - 0295745401 SN - 9780295745404 SN - 9780295745398 SN - 0295745398 SN - 9780295745886 SN - 0295745886 KW - Asian Americans : Fiction.
