Margins and Mainstreams : Asians in American history and culture<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Gary Y. Okihiro<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In this classic book on the meaning of multiculturalism in larger American society, Gary Okihiro explores the significance of Asian American experiences from the perspectives of historical consciousness, race, gender, class, and culture.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

While exploring anew the meanings of Asian American social history, Okihiro argues that the core values and ideals of the nation emanate today not from the so-called mainstream but from the margins, from among Asian and African Americans, Latinos and American Indians, women, and the gay and lesbian community. Those groups in their struggles for equality, have helped to preserve and advance the founders\u2019 ideals and have made America a more democratic place for all.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Asia<\/a>n America: Forming New Communities, Expanding Boundaries<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Huping Ling<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The last half century witnessed a dramatic change in the geographic, ethnographic, and socioeconomic structure of Asian American communities. While traditional enclaves were strengthened by waves of recent immigrants, native-born Asian Americans also created new urban and suburban areas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Asian America is the first comprehensive look at post-1960s Asian American communities in the United States and Canada. From Chinese Americans in Chicagoland to Vietnamese Americans in Orange County, this multi-disciplinary collection spans a wide comparative and panoramic scope. Contributors from an array of academic fields focus on global views of Asian American communities as well as on territorial and cultural boundaries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Presenting groundbreaking perspectives, Asian America revises worn assumptions and examines current challenges Asian American communities face in the twenty-first century.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Plague, Fear, and Politics in San Francisco’s Chinatown<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Guenter B. Risse<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When health officials in San Francisco discovered bubonic plague in their city\u2019s Chinatown in 1900, they responded with intrusive, controlling, and arbitrary measures that touched off a sociocultural conflict still relevant today. Guenter B. Risse\u2019s history of an epidemic is the first to incorporate the voices of those living in Chinatown at the time, including the desperately ill Wong Chut King, believed to be the first person infected.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Lasting until 1904, the plague in San Francisco’s Chinatown reignited racial prejudices, renewed efforts to remove the Chinese from their district, and created new tensions among local, state, and federal public health officials quarreling over the presence of the deadly disease. Risse’s rich, nuanced narrative of the event draws from a variety of sources, including Chinese-language reports and accounts. He addresses the ecology of Chinatown, the approaches taken by Chinese and Western medical practitioners, and the effects of quarantine plans on Chinatown and its residents. Risse explains how plague threatened California\u2019s agricultural economy and San Francisco\u2019s leading commercial role with Asia, discusses why it brought on a wave of fear mongering that drove perceptions and intervention efforts, and describes how Chinese residents organized and successfully opposed government quarantines and evacuation plans in federal court.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By probing public health interventions in the setting of one of the most visible ethnic communities in United States history,\u00a0Plague, Fear, and Politics in San Francisco\u2019s Chinatown<\/em>\u00a0offers insight into the clash of Eastern and Western cultures in a time of medical emergency.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

All You Can Ever Know: A Memoir <\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Nicole Chung<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What does it mean to lose your roots\u2014within your culture, within your family\u2014and what happens when you find them?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Nicole Chung was born severely premature, placed for adoption by her Korean parents, and raised by a white family in a sheltered Oregon town. From early childhood, she heard the story of her adoption as a comforting, prepackaged myth. She believed that her biological parents had made the ultimate sacrifice in the hopes of giving her a better life; that forever feeling slightly out of place was simply her fate as a transracial adoptee. But as she grew up\u2014facing prejudice her adoptive family couldn\u2019t see, finding her identity as an Asian American and a writer, becoming ever more curious about where she came from\u2014she wondered if the story she\u2019d been told was the whole truth.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

With warmth, candor, and startling insight, Chung tells of her search for the people who gave her up, which coincided with the birth of her own child.\u00a0All You Can Ever Know<\/em>\u00a0is a profound, moving chronicle of surprising connections and the repercussions of unearthing painful family secrets\u2014vital reading for anyone who has ever struggled to figure out where they belong.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Vivek Shraya<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Vivek’s debut collection of poetry is a bold and timely interrogation of skin: its origins, functions, and limitations. Poems that range in style from starkly concrete to limber break down the barriers that prevent understanding of what it means to be racialized. Shraya paints the face of everyday racism with words, rendering it visible, tangible, and undeniable.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Iep Jaltok: <\/a>Poems from a Marshallese Daughter<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Kathy Jetn\u0304il-Kijiner<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As the seas rise, the fight intensifies to save the Pacific Ocean\u2019s Marshall Islands from being devoured by the waters around them. At the same time, activists are raising their poetic voices against decades of colonialism, environmental destruction, and social injustice.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Marshallese poet and activist Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner\u2019s writing highlights the traumas of colonialism, racism, forced migration, the legacy of American nuclear testing, and the impending threats of climate change. Bearing witness at the front lines of various activist movements inspires her work and has propelled her poetry onto international stages, where she has performed in front of audiences ranging from elementary school students to more than a hundred world leaders at the United Nations Climate Summit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The poet connects us to Marshallese daily life and tradition, likening her poetry to a basket and its essential materials. Her cultural roots and her family provides the thick fiber, the structure of the basket. Her diasporic upbringing is the material which wraps around the fiber, an essential layer to the structure of her experiences. And her passion for justice and change, the passion which brings her to the front lines of activist movements\u2014is the stitching that binds these two experiences together.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Bone People<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Keri Hulme<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In a tower on the New Zealand sea lives Kerewin Holmes: part Maori, part European, asexual and aromantic, an artist estranged from her art, a woman in exile from her family.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

One night her solitude is disrupted by a visitor\u2014a speechless, mercurial boy named Simon, who tries to steal from her and then repays her with his most precious possession.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As Kerewin succumbs to Simon\u2019s feral charm, she also falls under the spell of his Maori foster father Joe, who rescued the boy from a shipwreck and now treats him with an unsettling mixture of tenderness and brutality.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Out of this unorthodox trinity Keri Hulme has created what is at once a mystery, a love story, and an ambitious exploration of the zone where indigenous and European New Zealand meet, clash, and sometimes merge.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Julie Otsuka\u2019s long-awaited follow-up to\u00a0When the Emperor Was Divine<\/em>\u00a0is a tour de force of economy and precision, a novel that tells the story of a group of young women brought from Japan to San Francisco as \u201cpicture brides\u201d nearly a century ago.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In eight incantatory sections,\u00a0The Buddha in the Attic<\/em>\u00a0traces the picture brides\u2019 extraordinary lives, from their arduous journey by boat, where they exchange photographs of their husbands, imagining uncertain futures in an unknown land; to their arrival in San Francisco and their tremulous first nights as new wives; to their backbreaking work picking fruit in the fields and scrubbing the floors of white women; to their struggles to master a new language and a new culture; to their experiences in childbirth, and then as mothers, raising children who will ultimately reject their heritage and their history; to the deracinating arrival of war.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Sour Heart<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Jenny Zhang<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A fresh new voice emerges with the arrival of\u00a0Sour Heart<\/em>, establishing Jenny Zhang as a frank and subversive interpreter of the immigrant experience in America. In this debut collection, she conjures the disturbing and often hilarious experience of adolescence through the eyes of Chinese American girls growing up in New York City. Her stories cut across generations and continents, moving from the fraught halls of a public school in Flushing, Queens, to the tumultuous streets of Shanghai, China, during the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s. In the absence of grown-ups, latchkey kids experiment on each other until one day the experiments turn violent; an overbearing mother abandons her artistic aspirations to come to America but relives her glory days through karaoke; and a shy loner struggles to master English so she can speak to God.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Narrated by the daughters of Chinese immigrants who fled imperiled lives as artists back home only to struggle to stay afloat \u2014 dumpster diving for food and scamming Atlantic City casino buses to make a buck \u2014 these seven stories showcase Zhang’s compassion and moral courage, and a perverse sense of humor reminiscent of\u00a0Portnoy’s Complaint<\/em>. A darkly funny and intimate rendering of girlhood,\u00a0Sour Heart<\/em>\u00a0examines what it means to belong to a family, to find your home, leave it, reject it, and return again.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Moon is everything Christine isn\u2019t. She\u2019s confident, impulsive, artistic . . . and though they both grew up in the same Chinese-American suburb, Moon is somehow unlike anyone Christine has ever known.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When Moon\u2019s family moves in next door to Christine\u2019s, Moon goes from unlikely friend to best friend\u2015maybe even the perfect friend. The girls share their favorite music videos, paint their toenails when Christine\u2019s strict parents aren\u2019t around, and make plans to enter the school talent show together. Moon even tells Christine her deepest secret: that she sometimes has visions of celestial beings who speak to her from the stars. Who reassure her that earth isn\u2019t where she really belongs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But when they\u2019re least expecting it, catastrophe strikes. After relying on Moon for everything, can Christine find it in herself to be the friend Moon needs?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

New York Times\u2013bestselling author-illustrator Jen Wang draws on her childhood to paint a deeply personal yet wholly relatable friendship story that\u2019s at turns joyful, heart-wrenching, and full of hope<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The One Thing You’d Save<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By Linda Sue Park<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If your house were on fire, what one thing would you save?\u00a0Newbery Medalist Linda Sue Park explores different answers to this provocative question in linked poems that capture\u00a0the diverse voices of a middle school class. Illustrated with black-and-white art.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When a teacher asks her class what one thing they would save in an emergency, some students know the answer right away. Others come to their decisions more slowly. And some change their minds when they hear their classmates\u2019 responses. A lively dialog ignites as the students discover unexpected facets of one another\u2014and themselves. With her ear for authentic dialog and knowledge of tweens\u2019 priorities and emotions, Linda Sue Park brings the varied voices of an inclusive classroom to life through carefully honed, engaging, and instantly accessible verse.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
