Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Mongrel is a wondrous, devious little book, full of itself, yes, but also full of innovative insights about being a diasporic Chinese in white America and a contrarian gay in a politically correct Bay Area in love with it self too much. I especially like his wry take on Singapore as a homey mall (his first home), and on his trip through the whitey south on a shoestring poet's budget. Justin Chin is a legend in Hawai'i, where I write and teach, and now I see why; and he should send Morgan Blair an inscribed copy of his book so she (one of his teachers)can see that he remembers her amid the postmodern muck of it all.
