In this debut essay collection, a Myanmar millennial challenges us to examine the knots and complications of immigration status, eating habits, Western feminism in an Asian home, and more, guiding us toward an expansive idea of what it means to be a Myanmar woman today.
What The Reviewers Say
Across two essays [the author] lucidly examines her fraught relationship with her own name.
... very engaging, lucidly written, and entertaining.
... it’s easy to see why [Moe Thet War] chose writing: she’s good at it.
... vivacious debut nonfiction collection showcasing wise-beyond-her-years insight ([War] is 25 in her first essay), biting impatience, and plenty of unfiltered humor. She deftly skewers gender inequity.
