Without doubt, Liu is an educated person and a talented speechwriter. Unfortunately, the essays in this book vascillated between the unknown of his father's life and commentary regarding the Chinese and being Asian (generally). When he started talking about "diaspora" and shared memory vs. shared experience, I put it down. I'd hoped for something different.
