Revisiting Magellan's voyage around the world, these poems explore the speaker's Filipino American identity by grappling with her relationship to her family and notions of diaspora, circumnavigation, and discovery. Whether rewriting the origin story of Eve (\"I always imagined that the serpent had the legs of a seductive woman in black nylons\"), or ruminating on what-should-have-been-said \"when the man at the party said he wanted to own a Filipino,\" Chan paints wry, witty renderings of anecdotal and folkloric histories, while both preserving and unveiling a self-identity that dares any other to try and claim it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marianne Chan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1946448524\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946448521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarabande Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2020 pg. 16\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/17\/2020 pg. 177","brand":"Marianne Chan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44051362775295,"sku":"9781946448521","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4af5c722-2b7a-4942-9fa2-e38bfe1664b3.jpg?v=1685012643","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/all-heathens-marianne-chan-9781946448521","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
