Revenge of the Mooncake Vixen: A Manifesto in 41 Tales - Marilyn Chin

In an uproarious debut that lays bare the complicated generational relationships of Chinese-American women, Chin references classical Chinese tales and ghost stories that are by turns sensual, lurid, hilarious, shocking, and surreal. Marilyn Chin's prose waxes and wanes between satire and metaphorical lyric, referencing classical Chinese tales and ghost stories that are at turns sensual, lurid, hilarious, shocking, and surreal.
