This anthology, coedited by Keller (Comfort Women) and Hara (Bananaheart and Other Stories), includes some very good writing by women of mixed race whose writing reflects the strength and turbulence of their experiences. Here, in their words, lies the dichotomy of their various existences: writes Debra Kang Dean, Always/ two worlds. What pattern governs this surface/ inscrutable as the ocean, my mother!s face ; Kiana Houghtailing Davenport reveals a snapshot of three friends laughing at the edge of a crater, like wondrous hybrid flowers, splashed palettes on the landscape ; and Ai declares, The insistence that one must align oneself with this or that race is basically racist and the notion that without a racial identity a person can!t have any identity perpetuates racism. Divided into three sections" Citizens of Nowhere, Through Yesterday To Grasp Her Wholeness, and My Heart!s Own Cathedral "this collection furnishes a wealth of information about growing up and living with mixed ethnicity by authors whose work is well crafted. Recommended for public and academic libraries"Sue Samson, Univ. of Montana Lib., Missoula
