    Critical Acclaim for Sherry Quan Lee's Chinese Blackbird"Quan Lee eloquently expresses how painful and confusing it can be toembrace the many complex identities that one body can contain. Withevocative imagery and words that cut straight to the heart, Quan Leedetails her lifelong struggles with both the vagaries and concreteness ofrace, class, gender and sexual identity. Her guilt and shame are palpable.But so too are her emotional and intellectual triumphs. Like a favorite sadsong when we have been dumped by the love of our lives, this volumewill be oddly comforting to anyone who has ever been overcome by thatsorrow which seems insurmountable."--Eden Torres, Assistant Professor Women's Studies, Chicano Studies, University of Minnesota"It's been a long time since I've been treated to a voice so full of honestyabout one's struggle to come to terms with her identity. Throughelegant poetry, full of exquisite imagery and detail, Quan Lee takes thereader on her personal, transformative journey in which she explores howrace, class, gender and sexual identity inform who she is. Along the way,she encounters rocks and boulders that would have stopped many of us.Instead, she turns them over and examines the creatures hiding in thedarkness underneath, leaving no stone on her path unturned. Quan Leeis a courageous woman. She is one of my sheroes."--Carolyn Holbrook, Adjunct Assistant Professor, Dept. of English,Founder and past Artistic/Executive Director of SASE: The Write Place"In Chinese Blackbird, Sherry Quan Lee renders stories of her complex culturalheritage with the lyrical touch of a poet coming into self-possession.Through the generative power of language, Lee creates an inspirational anda multifarious self. This self blows breath unto the page and into the reader,who may have felt quiescent or invisible, often feeling forced to chooseamong various enriching worlds, until she experiences the truth that onlygood literature can unveil about the joys and struggles of defining oneself onone's terms." --Pamela R.

    Love Imagined is an American woman's unique struggle for identity. "e;Joining the long history of women of color fighting to claim literary space to tell our stories, Sherry Quan Lee shares her truth with fierce courage and strength in Love Imagined. ... Quan Lee crafts a riveting tale of Minnesota life set within the backdrop of racial segregation, the Cold War, the sexual revolution while navigating it all through the lens of her multi-layered identities. A true demonstration of the power of an intersectional perspective."e; --Kandace Creel Falcon, Ph.D., Director of Women's and Gender Studies, Minnesota State University, Moorhead "e;Love Imagined: this fascinating, delightful, important book. This imagining love, this longing for love. This poverty of No Love, this persistent racism, sexism, classism, ageism. The pain these evils cause the soul...This is an important document of a mixed-race contemporary woman, a memoir about her family lineages back to slavery, back to China, back to early Minneapolis, and about the struggle of finding herself in all of these."e; --Sharon Doubiago, author of My Father's Love "e;When I read Sherry's story [Love Imagined], I recognized feelings and meanings that mirrored mine. I felt a sense of release, an exhale, and I knew I could be understood by her in a way that some of my family and friends are unable to grasp, through no fault of their own. It's the Mixed experience. Sherry Lee's voice, her story, will no doubt touch and heal many who read it."e; --Lola Osunkoya, MA Founder of Neither/Both LLC, Mixed-Race Community Building and Counseling Learn more at www.SherryQuanLee.com From Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.com BIO002000 Biography & Autobiography: Cultural Heritage SOC028000 Social Science: Women's Studies - General SOC043000 Social Science: Ethnic Studies - Asian American Studies
