Publisher's Summary:
From her childhood in Manila to the Bay Area poetry scene, and from new wave Manhattan rock clubs like CGBG's to the mean streets of Manila under Marcos, award-winning Filipino-American novelist Jessica Hagedorn utilizes her wide-ranging experience in her writing and performance art. This lively conversation with Kay Bonetti includes such topics as Hagedorn's friendship as a teenager with poet Kenneth Rexroth, the impact of the South American novelists on her fiction, her thoughts on Hollywood movies as a tool for cultural imperialism, and how and why she wrote her panoramic novel of Filipino life, Dogeaters. Winner of the American Book Award and finalist for the National Book Award (for Dogeaters), she has also written Danger and Beauty, a collection of short fiction and poetry.
