Kudos from Kirkus: A Peculiar Kind of Immigrant's Son

Hey, Kirkus Reviews chose A Peculiar Kind of Immigrant's Son as one of the "30 most Anticipated Fiction Books for Fall." Thank you, Kirkus! Jeez, I'm with Zadie Smith, Stephen King, Salman Rushdie, Attica Locke, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Ann Patchett, and Angie Cruz. I feel dizzy... and grateful.

If you do read my book of linked stories on immigration, please use the table of contents as a guide. The stories are in groups for a reason and relate to each other within their groups. Think of this as a cracked mirror, perhaps, from one angle it may look like a fragment of your face but from another angle you might see a stranger, a monster, even a hero.
