The China Mystique: Pearl S. Buck, Anna May Wong, Mayling Soong, and the Transformation of American Orientalism
This is a collage level book not for the general reader or even those who focus on Asian Americans. I found the prose very uneven and, especially in the first two chapters, thick. The chapter about Mayling Soong is disappointing if one read the recent biography "The Last Empress" and also finding two historical errors. The Chapter on Pearl Buck was interesting if one is willing to plow through it. Only the chapter about Anna May Wong was worth reading because there has never been enough written about her and the early history of Chinese Americans in Hollywood.
