About this product

Product Information

This fiercely satirical, semifantastical novel ... features an Asian-American television news executive, Emi, and a Latino newspaper reporter, Gabriel, who are so focused on chasing stories they almost don't notice that the world is falling apart all around them. Karen Tei Yamashita's staccato prose works well to evoke the frenetic breeziness and monumental self-absorption that are central to their lives.-Janet Kaye, The New York Times Book Review

    I got the Yamashita book. Came in good condition.

    it was good. no complaints. The book came in on time. It wasn't torn and it reflected what was posted on the web.
