Don Lee explores that issue from every conceivable angle, raising a thousand questions and undercutting easy answers.\" —Jennifer Egan\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJoshua Yoon, Eric Cho, and Jessica Tsai arrive at Macalester College with different baggage but a singular and overpowering ambition—to become artists. As the years progress, their resolve is tested first by an act of campus racism and later, while they’re living together as adults in Cambridge, by a set of real-world demands and distractions that ultimately drive them in vastly different directions. A dazzling exploration of racial identity and the queasy position of the artist in contemporary America, Don Lee’s latest is a landmark achievement—his most funny, tragic, and revealing book yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinner of the 2013 Asian\/Pacific American Award for Literature\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDon Lee\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the novels \u003ci\u003eThe Collective\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWrack and Ruin\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/i\u003e, and the story collection \u003ci\u003eYellow\u003c\/i\u003e.
