15 Books to Read for Lunar New Year by AllLitUp Poems that reckon with identity, race, and fractured relationships through the lens of food.

There are the bubbling expectations for immigrant daughters, the chewy strands of colonial critique, and dissolving crystals of language loss. Wu relentlessly searches the grocery shelves for the hard-to-digest ingredients of identity and belonging, offering us her nourishing honesty and courage pulled from the marrow.
