Title: The Complete Persepolis* (2007)
Author: Marjane Satrapi

Summary: Persepolis is the story of Satrapi's unforgettable childhood and coming of age within a large and loving family in Tehran during the Islamic Revolution; of the contradictions between private life and public life in a country plagued by political upheaval; of her high school years in Vienna facing the trials of adolescence far from her family; of her homecoming--both sweet and terrible; and, finally, of her self-imposed exile from her beloved homeland. It is the chronicle of a girlhood and adolescence at once outrageous and familiar, a young life entwined with the history of her country yet filled with the universal trials and joys of growing up.
* Adapted to an animated film in 2007

Title: The Magical Life of Long Tack Sam* (2007)
Author: Ann Marie Fleming

Summary: Who was Long Tack Sam?
He was born in 1885. He ran away from Shangdung Province to join the circus. He was an acrobat. A magician. A comic. An impresario. A restaurateur. A theater owner. A world traveler. An East-West ambassador. A mentor to Orson Welles. He was considered the greatest act in the history of vaudeville.
In this gorgeous graphic memoir, his great-granddaughter, the artist and filmmaker Ann Marie Fleming, resurrects his fascinating life for the rest of the world. It’s an exhilarating testament to a forgotten man. And every picture is true.

Author: Brian Ascalon Roley
Reception: Winner of the 2003 Association for Asian American Studies Book Award, Los Angeles Times Best Book of 2001, New York Times Notable Book

Summary: American Son is the story of two Filipino brothers adrift in contemporary California. The older brother, Tomas, fashions himself into a Mexican gangster and breeds pricey attack dogs, which he trains in German and sells to Hollywood celebrities. The narrator is younger brother Gabe, who tries to avoid the tar pit of Tomas's waywardness, yet moves ever closer to embracing it. Their mother, who moved to America to escape the caste system of Manila and is now divorced from their American father, struggles to keep her sons in line while working two dead-end jobs. When Gabe runs away, he brings shame and unforeseen consequences to the family. Full of the ache of being caught in a violent and alienating world, American Son is a debut novel that captures the underbelly of the modern immigrant experience.

Title: Polite Lies: On Being a Woman Caught Between Cultures (1999)
Author: Kyoko Mori

Summary: Twelve essays by a Japanese-American writer about being caught between past and present, old country and new. From her unhappy childhood in Japan, weighted by a troubled family and a constricting culture, to the American Midwest, where she found herself free to speak as a strong-minded independent woman, though still an outsider, Mori explores the different codes of silence, deference, and expression that govern Japanese and American women's lives: the ties that bind us to family and the lies that keep us apart; the rituals of mourning that give us the courage to accept death; the images of the body that make sex seem foreign to Japanese women and second nature to Americans.

Title: Disappearing Moon Café
Author: Sky Lee Reception: City of Vancouver Book Award, nominated for the Ethel Wilson Fiction Prize and the Governor General’s Award

Summary: Sometimes funny, sometimes scandalous, always compelling, this extraordinary first novel chronicles the women of the Wong family from frontier railroad camps to modern-day Vancouver. As past sins and inborn strengths are passed on from mother to daughter to granddaughter, each generation confronts, in its own way, the same problems -- isolation, racism, and the clash of cultures. Moving effortlessly between past and present, between North America and China, Sky Lee weaves fiction and historical fact into a memorable and moving picture of a people's struggle for identity.

Title: A Good Fall (2009)
Author: Ha Jin

Summary: In his first book of stories since The Bridegroom, National Book Award-winning author Ha Jin gives us a collection that delves into the experience of Chinese immigrants in America. A lonely composer takes comfort in the antics of his girlfriend's parakeet; young children decide to change their names so they might sound more "American," unaware of how deeply this will hurt their grandparents; a Chinese professor of English attempts to defect with the help of a reluctant former student. All of Ha Jin's characters struggle to remain loyal to their homeland and its traditions while also exploring the freedom that life in a new country offers.

Title: Dark Blue Suit: And Other Stories (1997)

Summary: Recounted in twelve powerful stories by award-winning novelist Peter Bacho. Set in Seattle from the 1950s to the present, Dark Blue Suit depicts the lives of two groups: Filipino immigrant pioneers, the Manong generation who arrived on the Pacific Coast during the 1920s and 1930s, and their American-born children. Although narrated as fiction, the stories – their landmarks, activities, settings, and events – are grounded in historical fact.

Title: Songs My Mother Taught Me: Stories, Plays, and Memoir (1994)
Author: Wakako Yamauchi, Garrett Kaoru Hongo

Summary: Songs My Mother Taught Me is the first collection of literature by this mature and accomplished writer. In her eloquent prose, Yamauchi, a Nisei (second-generation Japanese American)
illuminates the neglected social and emotional history of two generations of Japanese in the United States, recalling the harsh lives of rural immigrants, tenant farmers, and itinerant laborers. Informed by her own family history, her stories and plays recreate the wartime relocation of Japanese Americans and their postwar return to urban centers. She captures their ambivalent longings for the prewar family and culture of Japan.

Title: Phoenix Eyes and Other Stories Author: Russell Leong

Summary: Russell Charles Leong shows an astonishing range in this new collection of stories. From struggling war refugees to monks, intellectuals to sex workers, his characters are both linked and separated by their experiences as modern Asians and Asian Americans

Man from The Great Migration (2011)
Author: Eloise Greenfield

Saying goodbye to the land puts a pain on my heart. I stand here looking at the green growing all around me, and I am sad. But I keep hearing about this better life waiting for me, hundreds of miles away, and I know I’ve got to go. Hope my old car can make it that far

Out-Migration from Legal Studies Forum, Vol. 28, Issue 1/2, 2004. Author: Joseph W. Caldwell

Rust streaks on the tin roof like tree rings tell this farmhouse’s age. Swing chains chime behind morning glory on the porch. Sun slants through a glassless window on hay bales stacked in the dining room. When farmers first settled here, cleared bottom land gave all they needed. Now young men pull away in pickups, Seeking jobs in sprawling Carolina towns, and a curtain of dust trailing behind settles on sumac leaves.

Author: Langston Hughes

Dreams
Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow.
A Dream Deferred
What happens to a dream deferred? Does it dry up Like a raising in the sun? Or fester like a sore - And then run? Does it stink like rotten meat? Or crust and sugar over - Like a syrupy sweet? Maybe it just sages Like a heavy load. Or does it explode?

Cantonese Rhymes from San Francisco Chinatown (1987)
Author: Marlon K. Hom (Ed.)
Though I’ve journey to the very ends of the earth, I cannot forget my ancestral home. The traveler, in the still of night, thinks of his family, Tossing and turning, thoughts whirling, asleep, awake. In my dreams, my soul flies Back to the village. Fields and gardens seem barren and abandoned. O, why didn’t I go home? Why don’t I go home?

The Sullen Shapes of Poems (1991)
in Many-Mouthed Birds: Contemporary Writing by Chinese Canadians Author: Lucy Ng

Excerpt:
It must have been a relief after Hong Kong and Trinidad (mere islands)
to find yourself in the wide expanse called Canada: British Columbia, thick fir trees, mountains solid as the back of your hand. You could buy a house, a piece of land, plant yourself firmly in the North American soil. Sometimes you even forgot this was the second mainland you called home.

To My Father (1995)
in Two Shores: Poems = Deux Rivers: Poèmes Author: Thuong Vuong-Riddick

Excerpt:
Looking back over these years I See that we went from one continent to another. One after the other, the eight children with our mother and A-Na. -------- I went west, far, farther, looking straight ahead, not looking back until one day I arrived in front of this ocean, the Pacific.
I stand on the beach and the country I left behind is there in front of me.

How Feel I Do? (1991)
in Many-Mouthed Birds: Contemporary Writing by Chinese Canadians Author: Jim Wong-Chu
Your eyes plead approval Of each uttered word And even my warmest smile Cannot dispel the shamed muscles From your face Let me be honest With you To tell the truth I feel very much at home In your embarrassment Don't be afraid Like you I too was mired in another language And I gladly surrendered it For English You too In time Will lose your mother's tongue And speak At least as fluently As me Now tell me How do you feel?

Sansei (1996)
Author: Sally Ito

Excerpt:
I am at my Teacher’s house for my first calligraphy lesson. Grandmother has given me her old brush and her old inkstone and a blessing from her faraway Japan lips.

Me (1990)
Author: Lakshmi Gill

Excerpt:
My black hair is a dark beast’s mane framing a face etched in rain (I defy your expectation No, not pain, yes, rain)
It washes away the expression; Aha! She’s Asian!
