Sobre este artículo
New York. 1996. Farrar Straus Giroux. 1st Edition. Very Good. No Dustjacket. 0374290202. 278 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature Hawaii Women. FROM THE PUBLISHER - In her exuberant first novel, Lois-Ann Yamanaka tells the story of young Lovey Nariyoshi in Hilo, Hawai'i, on the big island of Hawai'i. Lovey`s best friend is effeminate and endearing; her father at once loving and brutal; and her entire family is caught in a cultural gap between East and West. WILD MEAT AND THE BULLY BURGERS embraces an array of familial issues as Lovey forges an identity of her own in a world where Japanese-Americans find no facsimile of themselves in pop culture or media, no trace of their inner lives in the stories they read, and where the unpalatable is served on a plate of uncertainty. At once a bitingly funny satire of white' happiness and a moving meditation on what is real, ugly at times, but true, WILD MEAT AND THE BULLY BURGERS crackles with the language of pidgin - Hawaiian Creole - distinguishing one of the most vibrant new voices in contemporary culture. inventory #26977 ISBN: 0374290202.
