Rated Interior Chinatown 8/10

A really fascinating book - ostensibly about an aspiring actor named Willis Wu and his Taiwanese immigrant parents, it blurs the line between the roles they perform on tv and the roles they perform in life as it explores, in semi-screenplay form, the roles Asian people have been put into in American popular culture and American life. The “interior” refers to the screenplay-style setup of the story but also the interiority of Willis’ perspective. A quick read and a rewarding one.
