We have quite a nonfiction line-up this week, including Yunte Huang's "superb biography" of Hollywood's first Chinese American movie star, Daughter of the Dragon: Anna May Wong's Rendezvous with American History; and Japanese graphic master Susumu Higa makes his U.S. debut with Okinawa, "a breathtaking compilation" of two previous works: Sword of Sand, which highlights the onslaught of World War II in Okinawa, and Mabui, which spotlights the ongoing postwar U.S. military occupation. Plus, award-winning journalist Dashka Slater "brilliantly dissects a true-crime story" in Accountable: The True Story of a Racist Social Media Account and the Teenagers Whose Lives It Changed. And so many more!
And for those contemplating long car trips or simply lounging in a hammock to wrap up the summer, few treats are greater than hearing the author of a memoir "Tell It Like It Is."
