"Spectacular."--Vogue Xuan Juliana Wang´s remarkable debut introduces us to the new and changing face of Chinese youth. From fuerdai (second-generation rich kids) to a glass-swallowing qigong grandmaster, her dazzling, formally inventive stories upend the immigrant narrative to reveal a new experience of belonging: of young people testing the limits of who they are, in a world as vast and varied as their ambitions. In stories of love, family, and friendship, here are the voices, faces and stories of a new generation never before captured between the pages in fiction. What sets them apart is Juliana Wang´s surprising imagination, able to capture the innermost thoughts of her characters with astonishing empathy, as well as the contradictions of the modern immigrant experience in a way that feels almost universal. Home Remedies is, in the words of Alexander Chee, "the arrival of an urgent and necessary literary voice we´ve been needing, waiting for maybe, without knowing." Praise for Home Remedies "A radiant new talent."--Lauren Groff "These dazzling stories interrogate the fractures, collisions and glorious new alloys of what it means to be a Chinese millennial."--Adam Johnson, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Orphan Master´s Son "Home Remedies doesn´t read like a first collection; like Jhumpa Lahiri´s Interpreter of Maladies, the twelve stories here announce the arrival of an exciting, electric new voice."--Financial Times
