Maxine Hong Kingston made a stunning entrance on the American literary scene with The Woman Warrior (1976), her memoirs of a childhood among ghosts.' Not only an account of growing up poor and Chinese American in the San Joaquin Valley, it was also an audacious feat of imaginative transformation and pathbreaking work of feminist autobiography, drawing on ancient myths and the family stories her mother brought over from China to make sense of a transformed life in America. This collection combines some of her greatest work into an accessible hardback format.
