Christopher finds himself on a wild journey with his gay older brother, Peter, a pan-Pacific TV chef; the defrocked, deranged, and eroding ex-director of a Chinatown settlement house, Reverend Ted Candlewick; the sharp-eyed, conspiring matriarch Auntie Mary, the bridge between the conflicting values that make up this cultural stew; and Uncle Lincoln, a bachelor, short order cook, and, quite possibly, Christopher and Peter's father. Further complicating Christopher's voyage are his ex-wives: Winnie, a Hong Kong immigrant looking for a green card, and Melba, an American orphan of the counterculture. Set against the backdrop of America's wars in Asia and the assimilation of that experience-the refugees, the stereotypes, the food- Eat Everything Before You Die is an ironic commentary on the identities the children of Chinese American immigrants concoct from their questionable histories, cultural practices, and survival strategies. Chan's riotous story will appeal to general readers, particularly those interested in the Asian American experience, and will be of strong, enduring interest to students and scholars in Asian American Studies. 410 0$aScott and Laurie Oki series in Asian American studies. 606 $aChinese Americans$vFiction 606 $aAsian American gay people$vFiction 606 $aCounterculture$vFiction 606 $aBrothers$vFiction 606 $aOrphans$vFiction 606 $aGay men$vFiction 606 $aCooks$vFiction 615 0$aChinese Americans 615 0$aAsian American gay people 615 0$aCounterculture 615 0$aBrothers 615 0$aOrphans 615 0$aGay men 615 0$aCooks 676 $a813/.6 700 $aChan$b Jeffery Paul$01801146 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969982903321 996 $aEat everything before you die$94346265 997 $aUNINA
