Late Friday, I learned that the talented Andrew X. Pham passed on earlier this spring. Catfish and Mandala is a compelling read and one of the first books by an Asian American author I remember reading. I enjoyed his second book, The Eaves of Heaven, as well. He had published his first novel only last year. Rest in peace, Andrew X. Pham.
Alex Kudera’s award-winning novel, Fight for Your Long Day (Atticus Books), was drafted in a walk-in closet during a summer in Seoul, South Korea. Auggie’s Revenge (Beating Windward Press) is his second novel. His numerous short stories include “Frade Killed Ellen” (Dutch Kills Press), “Bombing from Above” (Heavy Feather Review), and “A Thanksgiving” (Eclectica Magazine).
