The Heart’s Traffic Summary

This novel-in-poems chronicles the life of Xiaomei, an immigrant girl haunted by the death of her best friend. Told through a kaleidoscopic braid of stories, letters, and riddles, this stunning debut collection follows Xiaomei’s life as she grows into her sexuality and searches for a way to deal with her complicated histories.At times, meditation, celebration, investigation, and elegy, this is a book about personal transformation within the context of a family forced to make do–a Makeshift Family–and how one might create new language to name the New World.
