YA Librarian Crystal Chen at our Woodstock branch recommends this collection of essays: "Twenty-six writers, including Alexander Chee, Jenny Zhang, and Fatimah Asghar, offer provocative takes on what it means to be an immigrant in America." 

You can check out The Good Immigrant: 26 Writers Reflect on America—and the rest of the titles on our Staff Picks list—from the Library.
