Weike Wang
[isbn]
My aunt recommended this read to me and I'm so glad she did.
Joan is Okay by Weike Wang addresses the timely themes of pandemic living, coping with loss, and bridging the Asian American identity in a time of outward and inward crisis.
Joan is a character who challenges our preconceptions of success and how we may find humanity in shared moments big and small.
