Typical American: A Novel (Vintage Contemporaries Ser.)

by Gish Jen

This &“irresistible novel&” of Chinese immigrants navigating the American dream is &“startling [and] heartrending, without ever losing its comic touch&” (Entertainment Weekly). Gish Jen reinvents the American immigrant story through the Chang family, who first come to the United States with no intention of staying. But when the Communists assume control of China in 1949, Ralph Chang, his sister Theresa, and his wife Helen find themselves in a crisis, struggling to cling to their old-world ideas of themselves. But soon they begin to dream the American dream of self-invention. They transform, poignantly and ironically, from people who disparage all that is &“typical American&” to people who aspire to the American ideal. With droll humor and a deep empathy for her characters, Gish Jen creates a superbly engrossing story that sparkles with wit while challenging the reader to reconsider what it means to be a typical American. &“No paraphrase could capture the intelligence of Gish Jen&’s prose, its epigrammatic sweep and swiftness . . . . The author just keeps coming at you line after stunning line.&” —The New York Times Book Review

U.S. Women's History: Untangling the Threads of Sisterhood

by Andrea Estepa Anne Valk Ariella Rotramel Christina Greene Danielle L. Mcguire Danielle Phillips Deborah Gray White Jacqueline Castledine Jen Manion Kirsten Delegard Leslie Brown Nancy A. Hewitt Rebecca Tuuri

In the 1970s, feminist slogans proclaimed "Sisterhood is powerful," and women's historians searched through the historical archives to recover stories of solidarity and sisterhood. However, as feminist scholars have started taking a more intersectional approach--acknowledging that no woman is simply defined by her gender and that affiliations like race, class, and sexual identity are often equally powerful--women's historians have begun to offer more varied and nuanced narratives. The ten original essays in U.S. Women's History represent a cross-section of current research in the field. Including work from both emerging and established scholars, this collection employs innovative approaches to study both the causes that have united American women and the conflicts that have divided them. Some essays uncover little-known aspects of women's history, while others offer a fresh take on familiar events and figures, from Rosa Parks to Take Back the Night marches. Spanning the antebellum era to the present day, these essays vividly convey the long histories and ongoing relevance of topics ranging from women's immigration to incarceration, from acts of cross-dressing to the activism of feminist mothers. This volume thus not only untangles the threads of the sisterhood mythos, it weaves them into a multi-textured and multi-hued tapestry that reflects the breadth and diversity of U.S. women's history.
