Hunger by Lan Samantha Chang
A modern classic of American fiction: a haunting collection of stories that explore the lost loves and complex desires of Chinese-American immigrant families

'Her stories are most delicately and precisely written, and almost unendurably sad. However, there's compensation of a kind in the unobtrusive courage of the women she writes about' - Penelope Fitzgerald
'A work of gorgeous, enduring prose' - Washington Post
'Spare and haunting tales that ask ordinary questions about that extraordinary emotion: love' - Chicago Tribune
'Intelligent in concept and stylishly executed'' - Tatler
