Summary
"In The Woman Warrior (1976) and China Men (1980), Maxine Hong Kingston reinvented the family memoir in America with a complex and brilliantly imagined intergenerational saga that embraces history, autobiography, and intimate family secrets. This Library of America edition brings together these two classics--which Kingston conceived as a single work--with her 1989 novel Tripmaster Monkey: His Fake Book, a groundbreaking entertainment relating the adventures of its poet protagonist, Wittmann Ah Sing, in the Bay Area counterculture of the 1960s. Also included here are Kingston's beguiling short work Hawai'i One Summer and a selection of her uncollected writings from the 1970s and 80s." --, Provided by publisher
