Self Writeous

This literary collection presents a writer's journey, from his born motherland, Taiwan, to his reborn motherland, New York City, with many places in between. During this bicultural transformation, Chung uses his writing to explore the quintessence of self-being: identity. Through personal essays, poetry, and short stories, he unflinchingly reveals his kaleidoscopic observations about family, history, literature, politics, and sexuality. In this intimate collection, his writeousness is not just a word play of righteousness, but a sense of creation for artistic freedom.
