Reading Prescribee is not dissimilar to the experience of coming across a recipe in a vintage American cookbook: it transforms the familiar ingredients of contemporary life into an uncanny, discomfiting concoction. Wielding English as a foreign language and medium, Chang redefines the history of Taiwan and captures the alienation of immigrant experience with a startlingly original voice. Flouting tired expectations of race, gender, nationality, and citizen status, Prescribee is as provocative as it is perceptive, as playful as it is sobering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40321964343319,"sku":"9781643621517","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0004\/6497\/7956\/products\/content_f621b504-7d44-4d87-9b2b-0a8efe7e0976.jpg?v=1664007265","url":"https:\/\/open-books-a-poem-emporium.myshopify.com\/products\/chia-lun-chang-prescribee","provider":"Open Books: A Poem Emporium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
