Category: Fiction

Lisptick and Other Stories has won an American Book Award for 2002, the first book by a Hong Kong author and the first book from a publisher outside the United States to be so honored. Alex Kuo bridges oceans, cultures and generations. From grade-schoolers terrorizing Beijing's Bank of China to seeing Elton John at the Holiday Inn Lido, from an imaginary interview with Chairman Mao's trusted confidant and advisor to encountering a Christian evanglist at the Great Hall of the People; these stories play with and explode the intricate and often murky relationships between ideolgy, dissidence and just plain everyday survival.
