Asian Short Stories

Twenty-one years after the publication of his landmark debut collection Yellow, Don Lee returns to the short story form for his sixth book, The Partition. The Partition is an updated exploration of Asian American identity, this time with characters who are presumptive model minorities in the arts, academia, and media. Spanning decades, these nine novelistic stories traverse an array of cities, from Tokyo to Boston, Honolulu to El Paso, touching upon transient encounters in local bars, restaurants, and hotels.

For over five decades, Ruskin Bond has written charming tales that have mesmerized people of all ages. This collection brings together his finest stories for children in one volume. Published previously as a Treasury of Stories for Children, this attractive edition includes two new stories: "The Big Race" and "Remember This Day". Filled with a rich cast of characters, The Room of Many Colours, A Treasury of Stories for Children is the definitive book for all Ruskin Bond fans truly a collector's item.

Composed of several interconnected stories, each taking place in a year ending with the number six, ironically a number that in Chinese divination signifies “a smooth life,” Dear Chrysanthemums is a novel about the scourge of inhumanity, survival, and past trauma that never leaves. The women in these stories are cooks, musicians, dancers, protestors, mothers and daughters, friends and enemies, all inexplicably connected in one way or another.

亞銀想死這個念頭已經是很多年前的事，她把自己奉獻給這個互聯網足足二十四年，從BBS群組開始、ICQ年代、Yahoo Messenger、 MSN、以至各大討論區，然後 Facebook、 WhatsApp、Telegram、skype、LINE、微信、QQ...等等等等！廿多年裡，亞銀其實也只不過期求一段真摰的感情出現，可是直到現在還輪候中，她不知道是否某方面出錯了。 其實亞銀條件不錯，知書識禮而且有修養。樣貌是美人兒，當然是廿年前，不過爛船也有三斤釘.
