"Christine Kim's The Minor Intimacies of Race is a necessary and insightful look into the process of defining race and the experience of prejudice. . . . Kim should be applauded for her nuanced and informative approach to a very important topic."--Ethnic and Racial Studies"A valuable contribution to the study of Asian Canadian and Asian American literature. Importantly, Kim's compassion for and integrity to the subject is evident and admirable."--English Studies in Canada "Provides an exceptionally generative paradigm for thinking about those forms of collective identification that do not achieve the solidity of fully-fledged political movements but that nonetheless register in illuminating ways the everyday life of race in Asian North America. A fascinating and timely study."--Daniel Kim, author of Writing Manhood in Black and Yellow: Ralph Ellison, Frank Chin and the Literary Politics of Identity "A refreshing and original focus on the ephemeral and the minor rather than on the grand and universal. Kim offers sophisticated, critically engaged, and smart discussions of current topics in Asian Canadian and Asian American studies."--Eleanor Ty, coeditor of Canadian Literature and Cultural Memory "Capacious in its method, wide-ranging in scope, and compellingly written, Minor Intimacies of Race offers--in its multifaceted contemplation of the geopolitics of feeling and meditation on multiple publics--a remarkably original and decidedly sophisticated diasporic critique."--Cathy Schlund-Vials, author of Modeling Citizenship, Jewish and Asian American Writing "A worthwhile discussion of Asian Canadian and Asian American culture and its fraught relationship with the tenets of official multiculturalism. This beautifully captures the registers and modalities of feeling produced in more conventional novels as well as aesthetically experimental works by visual artists and writers."--Josephine Lee, coeditor of Asian American Plays for a New Generation
