1. The Autobiography Of H. Lan Thao Lam
Part memoir and part conceptual art project, Lana Lin’s The Autobiography of H. Lan Thao Lam retells her partner Lan Thao’s life from Việt Nam during the war alongside Lin’s own experiences as a gender-queer Taiwanese American. Using an experimental, dialogic approach inspired by Gertrude Stein, the book examines queer love and artistic collaboration while probing race, gender, memory, and everyday subjects like photography, illness, food, and life in New York in an intimate, reflective voice.
