I was in the bookstore and started flipping through the book and couldn't stop reading it, I was totally awed and drawn by the content and simply overjoyed to see what I have witnessed, experienced and lived in such a coherent fashion. I would definitely recommend this as priority reading for all Asian Americans regardless of sexual orientation.
Groundbreaking

Every comment I've ever read about this book refers to it as "groundbreaking." A cliche, yes, but also true. This sprawling, yet tightly edited, collection breaks new ground not only in its juxtaposition of Asian and queer issues, but also in its unique and progressive vision: a refusal to break queer Asians into merely a collection of P.C. buzzwords, and an assertion of the unique and whole individuals who constitute queer Asian America.
The best reading I've had this year.........

I found this book to have perspectives not only for gay Asians, but for all gay men and women of color.
