Publisher Description

Evidence of my life is everywhere.


What does it mean to be Chinese American? How are we reflected in the people we love, and us in them? What obligation do we have to those who share our blood, and how does a woman claim her life as her own? 


In vivid and evocative flashes of prose, Darien Hsu Gee dissects long-held beliefs and navigates the complexity of family dynamics from childhood through the current pandemic. Kirkus Reviews calls the collection "taut and lyrical," and poet Rigoberto González describes Gee's journey as "fierce and vibrant." Garrett Hongo considers her "a marvelously direct writer of powerful autobiographical vignettes, each one telling in its quiet ferocity."


An essential read for literary creative nonfiction and Asian American women's studies.
