Self description: "This genre includes many national, cultural and religious heritages. Works can be subdivided into some major groups: East Asian [Chinese, Japanese and Korean]; South Asia [India and Pakistan]; Southeast Asia [primarily Vietnamese and Pacific Islanders]; and Middle East. Most Asian Americans are concerned about being human [Lenz]. Caught between a fast-paced world of progress and a mysterious world of mythology and legends, many books in this genre focus on a perpetual search for one's self."
