Underspin (2025)
E Y Zhao
"E. Y. Zhao's virtuosic debut explores the underside of athletic success, spinning an intimate and exacting portrait of the high stakes world of elite table tennis. It is about the price paid when the pursuit of excellence goes awry, when love and abuse, tenderness and brutality, begin to feel synonymous. Written in kinetic, thrilling prose that vibrates on the page, Underspin will pull you into its relentless rally and leave you breathless."

Activities of Daily Living (2022)
Lisa Hsiao Chen
"The meditative quest that unfolds from this novel's deceptively simple framework is as riveting as any page-turner. Filled with startling insight and moving detail, Activities of Daily Living will make you want to attend to life more fully--its joys as well as its griefs. What can literature do that other art forms can't? This book is the answer."
