Reviews
"Justin Chin joyously picks at the scab of these times to peek at what our flesh freally looks like underneath. In this juicy collection, Mongrel, no subject is off-limits as Chin humorously explores the hot buttons of sex, class, race and even proctology!" --Tim Miller, author of Shirts and Skin "Justin Chin is so terrific in live performance that I was araid his prose couldn't live up to my expectations. I was wrong. Mongrel is a ferocious, challenging, funny, deadpan, moving and yes, it opened up a new reality to me. Chin is the Gonzo-Montaigne of our post-Foucault, post-Brady Bunch generation." --Felice Picano, author of Like People in History

Synopsis
In a time when memoirs are often less than they claim to be and essays do not say enough, Justin Chin breaks onto the scene with a collection that is a combination of confession, tirade, journalism, and practical joke. "Mongrel" is a cross-section of Chin's imagination and experiences that calls into question what it means to be an Asian-American in San Francisco, the effect your family will always have on you, and the role sexuality plays in your life. Whether it be Internet pornography or family history, Chin manages to dig deep and uncover not only the truths of everyday life, but also the absurdities that surround them. "Mongrel "is an exploration and distillation of the experiences and imagination of a gay Asian-American whose sensibilities were formed by the maelstrom of '80s American pop culture. A unique collection from a brash, funny new voice.

    Book Mob is a very dedicated seller! Their prices are very fair and the shipping costs are reasonable. The quality of the book I purchase was excellent and as described, in fact it looked like new! It arrived in great condition due to careful packaging in a padded envelope. Not many booksellers take the time to do that. I would not hesitate to purchase from Book Mob again due to being so careful with their treasures! Thank you Book Mob for a great eBay experience!
