Asian American Sexualities: Dimensions of the Gay and Lesbian Experience

Rating:
Summary: Underrated book about API gay men and lesbians
Review: This book is pretty good; I actually enjoyed it more than the more-popular "Q&A" anthology. This anthology features articles from the leading gay and lesbian API academics in the country. I purposely say "API" because the book includes a chapter on gay Polynesians. There's gender parity in the articles, or at least the editor is mindful of not making another androcentric book. I think all gay Asian-Americans should get their hands on a copy of this book. It's neither hyperacademic babble nor another cheesy poetry book. It would also be a great resource for ethnic studies majors. I think straight API allies will enjoy it as well. I recommend this book. It's a keeper.
