Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Am I Asian or American, or something in between?Am I Christian or Buddhist, or neither one?Do I wish to be woke or spiritually awake?Do I identify as Vietnamese or human?Labeled an alien in the country she calls home, and viewed as a tourist in the homeland where she was born, Thymai Dong-Sheehan ponders these questions as she stumbles through her so-called Asian life.The Beauties of My So-Called Asian Life is an excavation of identity-from Vietnamese refugee to French teacher, from LSD to PhD, from clueless to God-full. On a journey to make sense of who she has been, who she is, and who she wishes to be, good things come to Thymai in threes: vulnerability, equity, and spirituality.
