Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir by Eddie Huang

4.0

I’m all for people making sense of their identity and owning it in racist, xenophobic America. Huang does that and more in this foodie memoir that is about coming of age with hip hop, basketball, football, and Chinese school. His Taiwanese parents are a huge influence and he becomes a bad boy for his tween and teen years in part because of the abuse he gets at home. I look forward to watching his standup and his show by the same title.
