Back to the Top Comments from Back Cover In Intersecting Circles, readers have a rare - and much needed - opportunity to discover the diversity of experience that lies within the designation "hapa." -Ruthanne Lum McCunn, author of Thousand Pieces of Gold and Wooden Fish Songs "A chorus of essential and eloquent voices. In these stories, essays and poems, hapa women contemplate the tangled roots of ethnicity, gender, politics, and family to answer the universal question, "who am I?" Intersecting Circles is an important book, a book of laughter and tears, and most of all, remembering. It holds up that sudden and unexpected mirror that shows each of us, in a glancing image, the truest picture of who we are." -Rahna Reiko Rizzuto, author of Why She Left Us Back to the Top
