About this product

Product Information

More than a decade after its initial publication, the groundbreaking anthology Charlie Chan Is Dead remains the best available source for contemporary Asian American fiction. Edited by acclaimed novelist and National Book Award nominee Jessica Hagedorn, Charlie Chan Is Dead 2: At Home in the World brings together forty-two fresh, fascinating voices in Asian American writing--from classics by Jose Garcia Villa and Wakako Yamauchi to exciting new fiction from Akhil Sharma, Ruth Ozeki, Chang-Rae Lee, Jhumpa Lahiri, and Monique Truong. Sweeping in background and literary style, from pioneering writers to newly emerging voices from the Hmong and Korean communities, these exceptional works celebrate the full spectrum of Asian American experience and identities, transcending stereotypes and revealing the strength and vitality of Asian America today.

4 out of 5 stars

For School
This book was really sought out and purchased as a textbook for my literature class. I'm not too fond of textbook or books recommended by teachers but this one has a wide variety of latino works in it and was actually pretty interesting. I am probably going to keep this for my own collection since we were only to read certain sections and stories throughout the semester. anyway, i did like it and would recommend it, especially for people on the go since alot of the excerps or storys are pretty short and you won't feel too bad about having to set down a huge novel because of being busy.
