Yellow: Stories

by Don Lee

Yellow: Stories Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

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).

Synopsis:

"Yellow" is set in the fictional California coastal town of Rosarita Bay, whose inhabitants face not only fears of being ethnically "yellow" but also the universal terrors of love, failure, and abandonment.
