This is a book club episode. In it, Travis and Amanda will discuss and analyze the second half of Sansei and Sensibility by Karen Tei Yamashita. You should expect full “spoilers,” discussions of rhetorical elements, and celebrations / critiques of style and substance.
From the cover: “In these buoyant and inventive stories, Karen Tei Yamashita transfers classic tales across boundaries, and questions what an inheritance - familial, cultural, emotional, artistic - really means…These stories traversing class, race, and gender leap into our modern world with wit and humor.”
