The last sentence in the first paragraph refers to a story I wrote that's included in this anthology called "Strike the Wok"
A young man contemplates piano lessons and hockey; two misfits in Chinatown discover love; a Vancouver woman fondly recalls her parents’ old house in Newfoundland; a girl goes to Canada to escape her father; a tired old woman recalls her origins as an orphan for sale; a teenage girl cuts off her hair and leaves home…
This new anthology brings together some of the most exciting works of fiction by contemporary Chinese Canadian writers. Representing three generations of Chinese from a variety of backgrounds, including writers born in Canada as well as places outside, presenting a diversity of themes and styles, and set in various geographical locations and time periods, Strike the Wok is a truly kaleidoscopic look at Chinese life from modern Canadian perspectives. Internationally renowned as well as newer voices are included.
ISBN 1-894770-09-9
Unfortunately for some reason there was a screw up and my writer's copy and payment have not arrived yet. They're getting sent out this week. I tried looking for this book when I was in Vancouver, but it turns out I had the title wrong.
