Description

This book is distributed by Temple University Press for the Asian American Writers' Workshop. In this ground-breaking collection of poetry and fiction Korean American literary artists write from and about unexpected places-landscapes and mindscapes of alienation, obsession, conflict, and belonging. They attest to the tension between habitation within and movement across strange terrains, communities, and languages. Elaine H. Kim is Professor of Asian American Studies and Associate Dean of the Graduate Division at the University of California at Berkeley. She is co-author of "Fresh Talk/Daring Gazes: Asian American Visual Art" as well as Executive Producer of the video, "Labor Woman" (Asian Women United of California, 2002). Laura Hyun Yi Kang is Associate Professor of Women's Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of California, Irvine, and the author of "Compositional Subjects: Enfiguring Asian/American Women".
