Lam delves into sexual identity, poverty, romantic love, parenthood, eating disorders, infidelity, and family relationships, effortlessly carrying the reader from the ghettos to suburbia. From the tough-talking, lipstick-wielding girl in \"Lips,\" to the love struck lesbian artist in \"Fistful of Love,\" to the stoic single mother raising a disabled son and the infatuated widow trying to relive her past, Lam illuminates the hope, fear, and longing of what it means to be human.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angela Lam\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0988542757\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780988542754\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e All Things That Matter Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.29d","brand":"Angela Lam","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054883041535,"sku":"9780988542754","price":16.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8040fb26-4603-4ced-ad14-4d32b348008e.jpg?v=1685032536","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-human-act-and-other-angela-lam-9780988542754","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
