The Fortunes by Peter Ho Davies

4.0

In the Fortunes, four narratives, each of a different historical period, try to make sense of Chinese American experience. Not each one captivated me, but I needed the reminder of the Vincent Chin murder case in the 1980s that helped galvanize a pan Asian American identity and commitment to activism. I'm a sucker for the post modern moves in the final section. A good read!
