Self Writeous

The literary collection presents a writer's journey from his born motherland, Taiwan, to his reborn motherland, New York City, with many places in between. During this bicultural and bilingual transformation, C. K. Hugo Chung uses his writing to explore the quintessence of identity. Through personal essays, poetry, and short stories, he unflinchingly reveals his kaleidoscopic observations on arts, family, history, literature, politics, and sexuality. In this intimate collection, his writeousness is not just a play on words; it manifests his poetic exploration of creative and personal freedom.
