Fiction. Asian American Studies. "Considering how much I love Richard Chiem's writing, and given how its uncanny snare and sweep of life's especially agile, prompt, messed, lithe, sharp, and heartbreaking things leaves me stiffed of summarizing words, I think I'll just nominate his work for immortality." --Dennis Cooper "Richard Chiem writes of all the weirdness and ooziness and tenderness of young love, with such lucid specificity. Like some beautiful film from the 70s, but also distinctly now.

Here rings a wise and bravely sculpted book packed full of stunning thankful color."--Blake Butler YOU PRIVATE PERSON is Richard Chiem's first full length book.
