How Is The Growing Body Of Asian American Works To Be Read? What Holds Them Together To Constitute A Tradition? What Distinguishes This Tradition From The 'Mainstream' Canon And Other 'Minority' Literatures? In The First Comprehensive Book On Asian American Literature Since Elaine Kim'S Groundbreaking 1982 Volume, Sauling Wong Addresses These Issues And Explores Their Implications For The Multiculturalist Agenda.Wong Does So By Establishing The 'Intertextuality' Of Asian American Literature Through The Study Of Four Motifsfood And Eating, The Doppelg,Nger Figure, Mobility, And Playin Their Multiple Sociohistorical Contexts.
