Mak's extraordinary oil paintings, richly atmospheric and full of color and detail, are as stunning as his spare, precise poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a wonderful choice for students because it beautifully captures the immigrant experience — the grief of leaving home, the struggle to find belonging, and the joy of discovering a new one — through poetry and art that honors Chinese American culture with depth and beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books del Sur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43837552984182,"sku":"9780064437325","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1752\/6773\/files\/My_CHinatown.png?v=1783017744","url":"https:\/\/booksdelsur.com\/products\/my-chinatown-one-year-in-poems","provider":"Books del Sur","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
