Reviews
"This posthumous collection of stories and essays affirms [So's] versatility, secures his legacy, and bittersweetly reminds us of what could have been." -- The Millions, "This posthumous collection of stories and essays affirms [So's] versatility, secures his legacy, and bittersweetly reminds us of what could have been." -- The Millions "Anthony Veasna So's talent for evoking the anxieties, longings, and memories of diasporic Cambodian Americans -- on voluptuous display in his posthumously published short story collection "Afterparties" -- is put to vivid use in this new collection of delicately hinged essays that address everything from "deep reality TV" to So's stint as an art student." -- Boston Globe "It seems impossible to read these excerpts without wishing for more--from these characters, from this narrative, for this author. . . .Another posthumous publication from a writer who was only just discovering his brilliance." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Before his death in 2020 at 28, Cambodian American writer So was poised for greatness on a number of fronts: He was an irreverent writer about immigrant enclaves, queer life and the Bay Area's nether reaches. [Songs on Endless Repeat]. . .demonstrate[s] he was also a stellar cultural critic in the making." -- Los Angeles Times "So's essays resonate with vulnerable eloquence, but his potency lies in storytelling, effortlessly creating immersive worlds animated by familiar, vital characters, their vibrancy further magnifying the poignant loss of what could have been." -- Booklist "So's distinctive voice blends mordant cultural criticism with a striking combination of humor, compassion, and insight. This is a bittersweet testament to an astounding talent." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "In both his fiction and nonfiction, So's generous writing spirit shines through, capturing a community of people in flux, all of whom are trying to make space for themselves--and each other--in a sometimes-claustrophobic world." -- Daneet Steffens, The Boston Globe "Pieces originally published in the New Yorker, n+1 and elsewhere seamlessly integrate his Cambodian American family, California upbringing, queer identity and personal relationships both romantic and platonic. So's work defines a life of longing -- and will leave you longing for more." -- Bethanne Patrick, Los Angeles Times "Following up his award-nominated collection of stories is this fantastic anthology of essays (with a few stories mixed in) about queer life, race, family, his refugee parents, growing up in California, culture, and more." -- Liberty Hardy, BookRiot "This posthumous collection of stories and essays includes already published pieces and new fiction, all written with razor-sharp wit. Mining his youth in California and the lives of his refugee parents, Songs on Endless Repeat is full of vivid explorations of family, queer desire, pop culture, race and more." -- Sarah Stievfvater, Purewow "Shrewd, funny, inviting, and enlightening." -- Arianna Rebolini, Bustle "Magnificent. . . .
