With this book book began my love of the form of writing often called "memoir." Sometimes even "auto-biography." Maxine Hong Kingston challenges the reader's conception of memoir throughout the book. She challenges us to consider our own history and how we define it and how we might even describe it. What is fact, what is fiction? Are the categories truly binary? In this book, the only things that are clear are that fact and fiction blur and that we, as readers, too often fall into the comforting paradigm of the binary.
