Story
Born in war-ravaged Vietnam, Viet Nguyen arrived in the United States as a child refugee in 1975. The Nguyen family would soon move to San Jose, California, where the author grew up, attending UC-Berkeley in the aftermath of the shocking murder of Vincent Chin, which shaped the political sensibilities of a new generation of Asian Americans. The essays here, delivered originally as the prestigious Norton Lectures, proffer a new answer to a classic literary question: What does the outsider mean to literary writing?

Story
In 1889, while upholding the latest in a series of exclusionary laws targeting Chinese immigrants, the Supreme Court Justice Stephen Johnson Field characterized the Chinese as “impossible to assimilate with our people” and “strangers in the land.” Today, there are twenty-four million people of Asian descent in the United States, and yet, as Luo observes in his riveting, sorrowful narrative, the question of belonging still trails them. Strangers in the Land tells the story of a people who migrated by the tens of thousands to a distant land they called Gum Shan—Gold Mountain.

The Cost of Being Undocumented
- One Woman's Reckoning with America's Inhumane Math

Story
An inhumane math pervades this country: even as our government extracts labor and often taxes from undocumented workers, it excludes these same workers from its social safety net. As a result, these essential workers struggle to get their own basic needs met, from healthcare to education, from freedom of association to the ability to drive to work without looking for ICE in the rearview mirror. An undocumented activist and a social scientist come together to tally of the structural costs of undocumented life.

Story
One of the most potent issues on the Right has been the chaos and lawlessness on America’s southern border. In Biden’s Border Crisis, Mark Morgan assesses the crisis from a law enforcement perspective. We’ve been looking at the problem all wrong, he argues—this isn’t a cultural or a political issue—it’s about national security. Either we run the border, or cartels will. There’s no in-between, Morgan emphasizes.

Story
Lifeboat at the End of the World is an astonishing lyrical and literary book about the experience of being a lifeboat volunteer, migration, the sea, Dungeness and more. Rather than offering a political opinion, Dominic Gregory writes about the reality of the RNLI, of saving lives. He details the smells of the station, the emotions when the call to ‘a shout’ comes, how they are trained, the ethos of the service, and what it’s really like to sail out in the middle of the night.

Story
It was during a trip to the Ashmolean Museum in 2012 that Daisy first recalls being incorrectly labelled as a tourist – a trend that has continued since she settled in the UK, regardless of the documents she has gathered. From answering her daughters’ questions over whether they were ‘yellow’ or ‘Black’, to hearing the continued use of racist and culturally insensitive terms, such as ‘oriental’ and ‘Chinese whispers’, she has consistently felt othered, despite being a commonwealth citizen and having only once visited Hong Kong.
