Point Your Face at This
Ed Lin's excellent first novel, Waylaid, was a coming-of-age story set in a motel, the perfect setting for a young Asian-American protagonist obsessed with alienation and random acts of sex. His second novel, This Is a Bust, is a noir set in New York City's Chinatown in 1976. Expect funny, angry riffs on tokenism and hard-boiled detective fiction.
