Danger and Beauty (Paperback, 1st City Lights ed)

Hagedorn muses about love and sex, and probes with wry humor and sharp social satire the heart--and hearbreaks--of the immigrant experience.

"Jessica Hagedorn is one of the best of a new generation of writers who are making American language new and who in the process are creating a new American Literature."--Russell Banks

" Hagedorn] sees her native land from both near and far, with ambivalent love, the only kind of love worth writing about."--John Updike

Jessica Hagedorn is a performance artist, poet, playwright, and formerly a commentator on NPR. Her novel, "Dogeaters," won an American Book Award. Other books include the groundbreaking "Charlie Chan Is Dead: An Anthology of Contemporary Asian American Fiction" and "The Gangster of Love."
