Description
"In this coming-of-age memoir told through the themes of great books such as The Metamorphosis, The Scarlet Letter, The Iliad, and more, Tran navigates the push and pull of finding and accepting himself despite the challenges of immigration, feelings of isolation, teenage rebellion, and assimilation, all while attempting to meet the rigid expectations set by his parents. Against the hair spray -- and -- synthesizer backdrop of the '80s, Tran finds solace and kinship in the wisdom of classic literature, and in the subculture of punk rock, he finds affirmation and echoes of his disaffection. In his journey of self-discovery, Tran ultimately finds refuge and inspiration in the art that shapes -- and saves -- him."--,Provided by publisher.
