(3.2) | 2 | "In the eyes of white America, "Aiiieeeee!" was the racist cry from Asian Americans, their singular expression of all emotions-it signified and perpetuated Asian Americans as inscrutable, foreign, obedient, self-hating, undesirable, and one dimensional. With this anthology, first published in 1974, Frank Chin, Jeffery Chan, Lawson Inada, and Shawn Wong outlined the history of Asian American literature and boldly drew the boundaries for what was truly Asian American and what was white puppetry. Showcasing fourteen uncompromising works from authors such as Carlos Bulosan and John Okada, the editors introduced readers to a variety of daring voices.

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. This is a short story anthology with four editors. Most folks who put the editor in the author field use the first editor listed (Frank Chin), but this book shows up on the author page of the second editor listed (Jeffery Paul Chan). If you run a search for Aiiieeeee!, you will find a combined cluster with separate entries under the author names of all four editors! No matter which editor one puts in the author field, the book pops up under Chan's name. | |
