Filthy Fictions addresses Asian American literature by women to explore and explode the sedimented and solidified meanings we have created about "Asian Americans" and "dirt" through dialogues that not only cross disciplinary and institutional formations and borders, but also question the very borders and territories upon which these arguments may be founded. Expertly questioning the construction of the ethnic body, the book discusses critical discourses in ethnic and feminist studies around the topic of identity (re)production and transnational representation.
