A story about a parachute (wealthy Asian teenagers dropped off in America for school) who experiences everything the USA has to offer, including racism, classism, cultural anxiety, sexual assault and rape, with elements of grooming by a teacher. There are many TW, but it's an important read, especially when you know the background of the author.
