Home Remedies by Xuan Juliana Wang EPUB

Named One of the Most Anticipated Books of 2019 by Nylon, Electric Literature, The Millions, and Lithub

"Artful, funny, generous and empathetic... Xuan Julian Wang is a radiant new talent.” (Lauren Groff)

The 12 stories in Xuan Juliana Wang’s remarkable debut collection capture the unheard voices of a new generation of Chinese youth. A generation for whom the Cultural Revolution is a distant memory, WeChat is king, and life glitters with the possibility of love, travel, technology, and, above all, new identities.  

Her characters stand at the threshold of bold and uncertain futures, navigating between their heritage and the chaos of contemporary life. In a crowded apartment on Mott Street, an immigrant family raises its first real Americans. At the Beijing Olympics, a pair of synchronized divers stands poised at the edge of success and self-discovery. And in New York, a father creates an algorithm to troubleshoot the problem of raising a daughter born into a world so different from his own. From fuerdai (second-generation rich kids) and livestream stars to a glass-swallowing qigong grandmaster, these stories upend the well-worn immigrant narrative to reveal a new experience of belonging: of young people testing the limits of who they are and who they will one day become, in a world as vast and varied as their ambitions.  

In dexterous, electric prose, Home Remedies reveals a dazzling imagination and announces the arrival of a beguiling new voice in American fiction.
