Poetry. "Luckily it's the world. Miraculously, Koon Woon is alive in it, reminding us, joyful and brilliant, sad as salt, untranslatable - live! Li Po in modern drag, the voice of New America, samo scrabbling to pay rent - your father is buried in the same cemetery as Bruce Lee, you Karate chop Whitman's block of wood, eat egg tarts to feel Chinese, and buy a Japanese automatic rice cooker - perfect every time! The tradition of the wanderer is just a moment forever in the world's longest alley, under the table, the bubblegum kiss of the Tang dynasty - what a mess! Luckily, it's the world. Miraculously, Koon Woon has written THE TRUTH. You read it!" - Bob Holman, Author of IN WITH THE OUT CROWD.
