"Discussing the tenuous relationship between first generation immigrant parents and their hip young offspring, this debut novel is sympathetic without being saccharine and constitutes a fantastic portrait of intergenerational cultural friction."

TRAVEL LEISURE
An essay on my complicated issues about traveling appears in TRAVEL + LEISURE (Southeast Asia) in the April 2009 issue. It was surprisingly funny to brood on my anxieties about leaving the house. In the process of writing this essay, I figured out that I love the learning and seeing bits of travel even more than my consuming fear of the unknown.
My T+L editors were Chris Kucway, Paul Ehrlich & Matt Leppard.
