nuhafariha 's review for:
A Gesture Life
by Chang-rae Lee
I had very mixed feelings. On the one hand, the character is nuanced and deals with uneasy emotions and human relations. On the other hand, it feels performative. To what extent is Chang Rae Lee performing to the Asian American model minority stereotype, the quiet anguish, the gesture of domesticity? Who is the performance for?
