In this volume, this professor of Asian American Studies incorporates America's wars in Asia and Asian food. See them through the eyes of a son of a Chinese bachelor. Stereotypes, refugees, a pan-Pacific TV chef, and more are part of this novel, a truly cross-cultural stew that practices survival behaviors mixed with ex-wives, counterculture folk, others, and more. This book is subtitled: A Chinaman in the Counterculture; it is that and so much more.
