More information about the book - and all of the reviews that came out at the time - are on my website at and check out the section, "Featured Reviews", also. If you pick up the book, I hope you like it, and if you have any questions, please ask. While some of the characters in my stories are fairly autobiographical, others aren't.Īt the same time, I got many positive reviews: reviewers liked the poetry of the writing, as well as the originality of theme - tackling race and sexuality at the same time in a complex way. But in retrospect, I can see there was a little too much similarity in theme, and that it's hard for readers at times to disassociate an author from the characters that they've created. My publisher and I were confounded that readers couldn't always tell the difference between the characters - as if the markers of both Asian and gay overrode anything else.
