Part memoir and part cultural criticism, this collection is vulnerable, humorous, and provocative—and its relentless and riveting pursuit of vital questions around family and friendship, art and politics, identity and individuality, will change the way you think about our world…”  – Review excerpt on book cover. Minor Feelings: an Asian American Reckoning by Cathy Park Hong, One World, 2020.
