Exhalation by Ted Chiang

Knopf

Wang’s stories are by turns romantic, queer, quiet, loud, epic, intimate.

To tell a story of inexpressible grief, Li wrote an uncategorizable book.”

November Books

The writing is highly compressed, with sharp moments of lyricism cast against an ever-increasing feeling of dread.

But beyond Ozeki’s craft, it’s simply an engrossing emotional read.

AAPI Books Speak, Okinawa by Elizabeth Miki Brina

Knopf

I hope I one day write a novel as meaty and alive as this."

I often think of Otsuka’s beautiful composite when considering how specifics can elucidate a whole."
