Couldn't put this memoir down. Hsu's observations include touching considerations of his relationship with his Taiwanese parents from his early childhood to the long distance relationship with his father as a teenager. Then he summons great memories of early college friendship. There is music here and early internet exuberance along with a heavy recollection of a traumatic loss in the throes of self discovery.
