May in America is the newest novel from acclaimed Chinese American author Annie Wang. May, one of the new generations of Chinese super-rich kids, has outgrown Beijing and has come to California for an exciting life. She meets two American men: a Jewish American Harvard-educated professor named Leaf, and Mentor, a Silicon Valley self-made billionaire.

As her relationships with Leaf and Mentor progress, May's past traumas in patriarchal China are revealed, while her cultural naivete leads to divergent interpretations of trust, personal boundaries, respect, fetishism, and sexual deviancy. May's life descends into a mad triangle of deception. Desperate, hurting, disconnected, and suffering from the feeling of being emotionally dead and alone, May must find the strength to survive.

May in America reveals the universally evocative themes of love and lust, darkness and light, innocence and cynicism, individuality and codependence, and, ultimately, loss and redemption.

Annie Wang is the author of Lili and The People's Republic of Desire. She lives in Houston, Texas.

Reseñas de la crítica

"A deftly crafted and inherently riveting read from cover to cover ... (and) an especially and unreservedly recommended addition to contemporary literary fiction collections." (The Midwest Book Review)
