The Way Back

Told through direct and deceptively simple language, Edward Gunawan's hybrid collection The Way Back confronts the legacy of inherited and inflicted traumas as a queer Asian immigrant. Blending memoiristic prose and spoken-word poetics to navigate himself through the choppy post-colonial cross-currents of diasporic identity, sexuality, and transnationality, he invites all of us to chart our own true course back to self, to love, to home.
