Cover: Bob Onodera/Hideo Ietaka. keywords: Asian American Literature Anthology. DESCRIPTION - In the one-hundred-and-forty year history of Asian-America, fewer than ten works of fiction and poetry have been published by this forgotten minority. AIIIEEEEE! includes the writings of fourteen accomplished Americans of Japanese, Chinese, and Filipino descent. It spans the spectrum of literary genre with surrealistic prose/poetry, plays, autobiographies, short stories, and excerpts from novels. The selections highlight the writers' divergent interests and styles. The language is strong, the characters are forceful, the authors are arrogant and proud. The works explore the problems of self-contempt and the overriding anxiety concerning the dual identity in which the Asian-American feels he must decide to be either white or Asian. The editors say of their work, 'Asian-America, so long ignored and forcibly excluded from creative participation in American culture, is wounded, sad, angry, swearing and wondering, this is our AIIIEEEEE! It is more than a whine, shout or scream. This is fifty years of our whole voice.'. Jeffrey Paul Chan has been the chairman of the Asian-American Studies Department at San Francisco State University.
