Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

A dramatic debut, Real Karaoke People juxtaposes tradition and pop culture to bridge generations and continents in a way both heart-rending and real. Poems and prose engage readers with vivid and emotional portrayals of immigrant life and scrutinize conceptions of race, class, and ethnicity.

Through everything from frank confession to lyric verse, this collection offers an open yet often highly individual account of contemporary America and the aftermath of assimilation. At once nostalgic and critical,Real Karaoke People offers a gritty, honest, and compelling worldview.

ED BOK LEE is the author of Real Karaoke People,winner of a PEN/Beyond Margins Award, and an Asian American Literary Award (Members' Choice). Other awards include grants from the Jerome Foundation, NEA, and a McKnight Artists Fellowship in Poetry.
