    • Summary:"Fiction. "Collectively, these stories in INTO THE FIRE, gathered by the editors with intelligence and grace, are impressive in their geographical breadth. The narratives span the globe, and in this very dispersal correspond to the migrations of exile and return fundamental to the Asian American psyche. Individually, these stories are distinctive in their emotional range: each one flying inland, straight into the heart of our experience" - Cathy Song, author of SCHOOL FIGURES."--Abebooks.com viewed Nov. 17, 2023.
