Messy Roots by Laura Gao
A Graphic Memoir
A warm, illustrated memoir that weaves the author’s family history and immigrant journey from Wuhan to life in America with reflections on language, belonging, and identity; it explores the awkward and tender negotiations between generations as she comes to terms with her queerness, grapples with cultural expectations, and confronts rising anti-Asian sentiment during the pandemic, all told with humor, vulnerability, and intimate drawings that connect personal memory to ancestral roots.
