A PERSONAL BIBLIOGRAPHY
First, a warning: This is definitely not a complete listing of works of fiction by Asian and Asian American authors who write in English. I am happy to report that since the publication of the original Charlie Chan Is Dead in 1993, there are many, many more writers around than I had included in that first edition’s “Selected Readings” list. Obviously, some of the writers on this revised list have written many more books of fiction than I am able to note here. And because of space constraints, I have regretfully had to omit books of poetry and nonfiction by Asian and Asian American authors that have had an enormous influence on me. I have included books by several Philippine, British, Canadian, Caribbean, and Pacific Islander authors. Nowadays, with a little effort and computer know-how, one can actually order these once hard-to-find books through the Internet. It was a delightful challenge to put together this personal bibliography of novels and short-story collections. Here then, alphabetized by author:
Alexander, Meena. Manhattan Music. San Francisco: Mercury House, 1997.
