This 11-piece collection by Ralph Lam addresses the unaddressable: identity. Lam attempts self-discovery and meaning by deriving truth from a world of falsehoods. Laugh, cry, sigh, or all of the above as you peruse this brief retrospective from a student who had to grow up far too quickly.
"Ralph Lam is a powerhouse—as original as he is wide-ranging in his work, as inspired as he is inspiring."
"Ralph Lam is a horrifying mirror from which I cannot run. He is the deafening silence of a truth acknowledged but left unspoken. He is a cold hand on burning flesh and a question I dare not answer. He is a drinker of unsweetened black coffee and a damn good liar."
—from the Foreword
About the Author:
Ralph Lam is a high school senior from Hong Kong. He enjoys writing about family, culture, and the impact they have on identity. He likes to read his work in front of his plants; they tend to be a quiet and respectful audience. He also tends to look far too closely into every scene of a movie. When Ralph isn’t sitting at his desk, attempting to will stories into existence, he is eating his way across the world.
