As the Los Angeles Times noted in its profile of the author, "few writers have mined the genre of ethnic literature] as shrewdly or transcended its limits quite so stunningly as Don Lee." Harking "back to the timeless concerns of Chekhov: fate, chance, the mystery of the human heart" (Stuart Dybek), these interconnected stories "are utterly contemporary, ...but grounded in the depth of beautiful prose and intriguing storylines" (Asian Week). They paint a novelistic portrait of the fictional town of Rosarita Bay, California, and a diverse cast of complex and moving characters. "Nothing short of wonderful...surprising and wild with life" (Robert Boswell), Yellow "proves that wondering about whether you're a real American is as American as a big bowl of kimchi" (New York Times Book Review).

圖書標籤: 亞裔美國文學 (English)
因為SAT買的。感覺還好,但是確實不如那些大傢名作要好
評分在亞裔美國文學派係,有一群人專注於寫FOBs (fresh-off-the-boat),描寫初來美國的亞裔群體的經曆,如Thi Bui的graphic novel The Best We Could do,還有人寫到第二代人口的掙紮,如Hisaya Yamamoto的短篇。而Don Lee的特彆之處在於 他不著重刻畫亞裔在融入美國社會時的心酸曆程,以及重構自我認知的睏難。簡單來說就是即使更換主人公們的race這個故事粗綫條上仍是成立的,但是細究又是有著亞裔特性的(如”oriental poets”)。在二代以後的三代甚至更後麵幾代,他們已經與西方文化極度靠近,卻因他們的ethnic loyalties遭受歧視和強加給他們的刻闆印象
